Why Play Christmas Would You Rather?
I’m sure you would agree that would you rather is really more than just a game. It’s a way to connect and get your kids thinking creatively.
Here’s why it’s perfect for the holidays:
Easy to play – No setup or special materials needed, just ask and answer.
Inclusive – Works for kids of all ages (even adults love joining in!).
Great icebreaker – Helps shy kids feel comfortable during parties or family gatherings.
Encourages imagination – Many questions are silly or festive, encouraging kids to think creatively.
Whether you’re playing around the dinner table, on a long car ride to Grandma’s house, or in the classroom, this game is a winner!
Here’s How To Play
The rules are super simple:
-
Read a Would You Rather question aloud.
-
Each child chooses one of the two options.
-
Kids can explain why they chose their answer (optional, but it’s fun and sparks conversations!)
That’s it!
You can take turns asking questions or have one person be the “host” for the whole round.
