These New Year’s edition would you rather questions can be used during the week before the new year or as an entertaining New Year’s Eve activity.
You could also place the cards in a jar and let each child draw one question to answer.
For added durability, we suggest laminating the cards so they can be used again each year.
When celebrating New Year’s Eve with children, you can turn these questions into a countdown game. Ask one question every 5 minutes until the countdown begins.
