This game is fun for the whole family. Use it to strengthen your family bonds during dinners or on a family night. It’s easy to put together and you can play it over and over again.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • a fun family
  • time
  1. Step 1

    Gather questions about family members and the answers. Place these on index cards with the questions on one side and the answers on the other. Start with the simple, birthdays including the year and go on to the harder like “What is daddy’s favorite cartoon character?” Each family member should do some of their own questions.

  2. Step 2

    Serve some type of food while beginning the game. Snacks like popcorn help with the concentration and keep younger siblings quiet while older ones are playing.

  3. Step 3

    The oldest in the house starts by asking the first question to the next oldest. If he/she gets it wrong, the next oldest gets to try and so on down the family line. If no one gets the answer the one asking the questions gets the point.

  4. Step 4

    The game has a winner when someone gets to 5 points.

Tips & Warnings
  • Save the cards for the next round and double up on the questions you have by thinking of more.
