North Carolina State Symbols Trivia Game - Part 1

I remember making a little booklet of North Carolina symbols when I was in elementary school in Cleveland, NC. Many states are still adding symbols, sometimes prompted by children who are interested in conserving our resources or protecting wildlife. I think it is great to learn more about native plants, animals, and more in one's home state and other states as well.

This trivia game features 15 state symbols of the Tarheel State (North Carolina). How many do you know?
