Quaker Meeting (child's game)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quaker Meeting, or "Quaker's Meeting", is a child's game which is initiated with a rhyme and becomes a sort of quiet game where the participants may not speak, laugh, or smile. The rhyme has many variations, but is similar to the following:

Quaker meeting has begun.
No more laughing, no more fun.
If you show your teeth or tongue,
you must pay a forfeit.
