Would You Rather Christmas Questions Game for Children’s Church

Play this Would You Rather Christmas Questions game for children’s church for some extra holiday fun. Pair them with the story of Christmas and you have a winning combo!

Coming up with a Would You Rather Christmas Questions game for children’s church for my newest elementary program was lots of fun. When I announced to my audience of elementary kids that we were going to play the “Would You Rather” game, they got very excited. I think your kids will have fun too.

If you are not familiar with the “Would You Rather” game, it is very simple. Basically, all you do is ask your kids a question that gives them 2 options. For example, my first Would You Rather Christmas question is the following:

Would you rather have dinner with Santa or Frosty the Snowman?

A child then answers what they would rather do.

In its simplest version, that’s all the game is. However, I take it up a few notches by adding the following elements:

First of all, I pair my Would You Rather Christmas Questions game for children’s church with a retelling of the Christmas story. I take the story of Christmas and separate it into as many parts as I have Would You Rather questions. Today, I am giving you 10 questions, so you can separate the story into 10 parts.




You can share the story of Christmas straight out of scripture, or you can click HERE to take you to another post where I give you (for free) pictures of the Christmas story that you can share during its telling.

Next, after you share a part of the Christmas story, ask a child to come forward and ask the first Would You Rather question. Let him give his answer. You will then tell the student whether or not his answer matches a “survey” of people who were polled with their answers. For example, my survey showed that most people would rather have dinner with Santa. If the child also answered Santa, he then gets to pick 3 “gift” cards from my board of gift cards with points on the back. Here is a sample of the backs and fronts of the cards I made:




If the child said Frosty the Snowman, he only gets to pick 2 cards. The points are added up for his team and the next team gets to play the game after the next part of the Christmas story is read.
