Travel Trivia Thursday Giveaway
By: Colleen Lanin, The Travel MamaMarch 31st, 2010
I had this clever idea to post a weekly Travel Trivia question on the home page when I first launched TravelMamas.com one year ago. Little did I know how much time I would spend brainstorming and researching the questions and answers! A few months ago I started posting the questions every Thursday as mini blog posts (instead of just on the home page), and thus, Travel Trivia Thursday was born.
My brain is tired people. Help a Travel Mama out by suggesting a Travel Trivia question as a comment to this story below. If you do, you can win a $25 gift certificate from KidsTravelHappy.com, a site that specializes in UNplugged toys, games, books, activities, and unique gear for real and imaginary journeys. Can’t think of a trivia question? That’s okay…you can use one of mine instead. Simply copy a question from a previous week into the comments.
This contest ends Thursday, April 1 at 11:59 pm Pacific Standard Time. You can check back tomorrow for another chance to win as part of the Travel Mamas Anniversary Prize A Day Giveaway.

The prizes will increase in value each day.

My favorite one is: In which country is the world’s largest swimming pool? My guess was Dubai, but the correct answer is Chile! Fun idea to do the trivia! Thanks.
