Thanksgiving Party Games
Family History Trivia Party Game
Who moved where, who burned the rolls, who is the baby in the photo.

- 6–16
- Time
- 15–25 min
- What you need
- A host who prepared ten family questions
Why it works as a party game
Thanksgiving is the one day the witnesses are in the room. Make a party game of it before someone starts a slide show unprompted.
How to play
- Write ten questions with one clear answer each.
- Teams write answers. No shouting over elders.
- Reveal with the short true story, not a lecture.
- Winning team does not have to do dishes. Or does. Host's call.
Hosting tips
- Avoid anything that will actually hurt someone.
- Include at least two questions the kids can win.
- A photo round is enough. Do not open a box of albums.
