Get set up

Gather the required materials: Prepared questions; paper optional. Set them out before explaining the first round. Choose an indoor area where the group can participate without blocking walkways.

LET’S PLAY

Here’s how it works.

  1. Prepare a mix of short questions.
  2. Split into teams.
  3. Read one question and give about ten seconds to answer.
  4. Reveal the answer and update score.
  5. Move quickly through several categories.

A few ground rules

Keep the agreed turn order, boundaries and timing consistent for everyone. Players may pass or use an accessibility adaptation without penalty.

Mix it up

Add a picture round, decade round or birthday-person prediction round.

Make it a great round

Balance questions so different ages and interests can contribute.

Keep everyone comfortable

Use only personal facts the birthday person is comfortable sharing.
