Do You Know Your Family Game
So what is this family trivia game? Do you know your family is a family-friendly game filled with questions and challenges. The family-friendly trivia questions require players to ask a question about themselves and their family to answer the questions. For added fun, there are challenge chards or action cards. The fun game cards are quick and easy so toddlers and grandparents are welcome to join in on the fun.
Let’s take a look at game trivia questions and family challenges that are a great fit for the entire family.
How Well Do You Know Your Family Questions
If you are familiar with family conversation starter questions, then you will understand how these family game cards work. Typically conversation cards for families require someone to answer in a way that is telling about oneself. However, for a fun twist, in this know your family? game, the fun questions are not introspective. Instead, they require a player to ask interesting questions and the rest of the family answers the questions in observance of the person asking the question.
Let’s look at a few family trivia card questions…
- Question: Who is my favorite teacher?
- Question: Which song do I know the most words to?
- Question: If I could have a superpower, what would it be?
If a family member gets the right answer, they get to keep the card.
Mini Family Challenges
To step up the excitement, there are competitive challenges in this fun card game for families. This allows, in addition to questions, a little bit of friendly competition and action via fun challenges to do at home.
These fun challenges include supplies found in the home but if there is something you do not have, it can easily be replaced with something else so there is no need to buy more than the game itself.
Examples of family-friendly challenge cards include…
- Action: Start at a table with chairs. At go, all players must get up and run around the house. The first player back to their chair wins the card.
- Action: All players fold paper airplanes. The paper plane that flies the furthest gets to keep the card.
- Action: See which player can stack the most coins in 30 seconds using only one hand. The winner takes the card.
In each of these frantic family fun competitions, the winner is the first person to finish and takes the card.
