Will your turn grant you sweetness or a cheeky twist? Players pick a scratchcard and try to guess which card contains ‘cake’ from the pile of cards. Everyone takes turns scratching the surface of their selected card and read them out loud to the group. Those you have picked ‘coal’ have to either tell a joke or share an embarassing festive story. Have fun!
 
These scratchcards come in a pack of 4 and are enclosed in an elegant glassine pouch. They are a stylish bunch with a matte smooth finish. The paper used for the cards is 100% recyclable and is made with 60% recycled materials and 0% chlorine.
 
Astra’s page-based poems and objects often have an interactive dimension to them as a means of reaching out to new or non-poetry audiences as well as engaging with readers and viewers in a deeper sense. From her Poetry Jenga which has taken many forms over the years to wearable poems, her tangible visual poems often take the shape of — and reshape or transform — recognisable objects. 
 
Concerned with playing too much? Worry not, too much poetry never harmed anyone.
