Ways To Use the questions
You can keep things really simple and just read the questions out, or turn them into more of a game. Here are a few easy ideas.
Around the table
Go round in a circle and let everyone answer each question. Ask a couple of people to explain why they chose their answer… this is where you get all the funny stories.
Stand up / sit down game
Choose one side of the room for the first option and the other side for the second. Read a question and everyone moves to their choice. Great when kids need to burn off a bit of energy before bed.
Silent vote
Give everyone a copy of the printable and something to write with. Let them quietly tick their answers, then compare at the end to see who matches the most.
Road trip or travel time filler
Use the questions while you are travelling to see family or waiting for Christmas events to start. Quick icebreakers like this are a go to for family gatherings and office parties now.
