Materials needed for this Christmas game for a group of ladies
To host this fun Christmas-themed Family Feud game, you’ll need the following materials:
Question and Answer Cards or List:
- Write down the survey questions (samples below) and answers in advance (like those provided earlier). Use index cards, printouts, or a tablet for easy access.
Scoreboard:
- A whiteboard, chalkboard, or a large piece of paper to track team scores. Alternatively, use a digital scoreboard app on a tablet or laptop.
Buzzers or Alternatives:
- Buzzers if you have them, or use small bells, squeaky toys, or simply have teams clap to signal their turn. They aren’t expensive. I bought mine on Amazon.com. Here are some you can choose from. I am an Amazon affiliate. Let me know in the comments if you’d like me to do a short video demonstrating my buzzer.
Timer:
- A phone or stopwatch to time each team’s responses during their turns.
Optional Materials for Added Fun!
Prizes:
- Small, festive prizes such as candy canes, ornaments, devotional books, or gift cards.
Festive Decorations:
- Christmas-themed tablecloths, lights, or signs to set a holiday mood. Dollar Tree is the place to go for these.
Props:
- Fun hats, reindeer antlers, or Santa hats for team captains.
Sound Effects:
- A bell or app for correct answers and a buzzer sound for wrong ones.
Team or Family Badges:
- Create simple name tags or badges to identify teams (e.g., Team Jingle Bells vs. Team Silent Night).
Setup Tips for Your Christmas game for a group of ladies
- Arrange a space with enough seating for the teams and a central area for the host.
- Divide the group into two or more teams and provide a festive name for each.
- Ensure everyone can see the scoreboard and hear the questions clearly.
Instructions for the Christmas game for a group of ladies
- Split the group into two teams.
- Have a “host” read the questions, and the teams take turns guessing the most popular answers.
- Each correct answer earns points, with higher-ranked answers earning more points.
- The team with the most points at the end wins!
Survey Questions and Answers
I recommend you survey people on Facebook or another social media outlet. Write your questions out and use Google Forms or another method.
This will be easy if you have a Facebook group for your women’s ministry. The only caveat is that people will then have a hint about the questions.
(Note: Assign points to answers based on their ranking, e.g., top answer = 50 points, second = 40 points, etc.)
