How to play with holidays

Ask one question and give everyone a short turn. Listen without interrupting, and let anyone pass. For a holidays round, let everyone choose a comfortable prompt. You can play with people in the room or share the screen remotely.

Let's play

A quick round

Pick ten prompts and keep each answer to one sentence. Stop when the group wants to talk more.

A story round

Use fewer prompts and invite an optional follow-up. Let the person answering decide how much to share.

A paper round

Print a small set, cut out the cards, and let willing players draw a prompt. Keep a skip pile on the table.

Make it your game.

Simple rules, plenty of room for your group.

How do you play icebreakers with holidays?

Can we play without an account or an app?

Yes. Open play mode in your browser, read a prompt aloud, and move to the next one. Every control also works without JavaScript.

Can I print these questions as cards?

Yes. Choose Print cards, select how many you want, and download a PDF with cut lines and an optional rules card. Printing is free.

Can someone skip an uncomfortable question?

Always. Skip without explaining, choose another prompt, or stop the round. Nobody owes the group a personal answer or a performance.
