Swedish Tipspromenad
Did you miss the Swedish trivia tipspromenad during Swedish weekend? No problem - take the online quiz here to find out if you are a SUPER SWEDE.
Got Your Goat! A printable game you can play anywhere.
If you've always wanted to play at being Prime Minister of a Nordic Country, here's your chance. Simply download the cube template to the left and follow the instructions to create your own cube.
How to play the game:
Roll the die. If it lands on one of the four prime ministers, the player must either name the country from which that prime minister is from, OR the name of the prime minister. More advanced players can also add trivia or do a short impersonation.
If the die lands on the Caution sign, the player must name one thing he or she would do to make the world a better place.
If the die lands on the Nordic Immersion Village Art Shanty, the player immediately changes into a goat (yes, bleating is required) and tries to tag the other players. The last person to get tagged starts the next round.
Denmark: Lars Løkke Rasmussen
Finland: Matti Taneli Vanhanen
Norway: Jens Stoltenberg
Sweden: John Fredrik Reinfeldt

Sound familiar?
You may have heard some of these musicians without ever realizing they were from Scandinavia. Can you figure out which countries they are from?
