How to play with kids

Ask one question and give everyone a short turn. Listen without interrupting, and let anyone pass. For school groups, read unfamiliar words aloud, use the clean bank, and give children time to think. An adult should choose the pace.

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 kids?

Ask one question and give everyone a short turn. Listen without interrupting, and let anyone pass. For school groups, read unfamiliar words aloud, use the clean bank, and give children time to think. An adult should choose the pace.

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.

Are these questions appropriate for this group?

This bank is rated kids. Kids and school banks are separate from adult banks. All our content is non-explicit, and even flirty prompts stay light.

Try a different kind of question.
