Christmas Movie Trivia

You can split into teams or just go around the room answering questions. Or even to pass time in the car. You really can’t go wrong with these fun trivia questions for kids and adults.
Why Trivia is a Great Family Activity
Trivia games are a great family activity. If played in a fun environment, it can help strengthen family relationships. Be sure not to get too competitive where family members don’t want to play anymore. Encourage one another and help each other out.
Showing how to encourage one another by example is a great way to spend time with your kids. They learn that life isn’t always about winning or losing but about opportunities to help someone else.
Learning new skills while playing a game is always a plus in my book!
