What You’ll Need

  • Printer

  • The Holiday Little Connections Cards (PDF)

  • Optional: cardstock for durability, a small bowl/jar or place-card holders, markers or pens to add names or your own prompts

How to Play

  1. Print, cut, and shuffle the cards. Place them in a bowl at the center of the table or set one at each place setting.

  2. Take turns drawing a card and answering. Encourage follow-ups like “why?” or “tell me more,” and invite little ones to go first.

  3. Try quick variants:

    • Gratitude Round: each person answers one card before the first bite.

    • Pass & Pick: pass the bowl; you may swap once if a prompt doesn’t fit.

    • Road-Trip Stack: keep a mini pile in the car for screen-free travel chats.

    • Kids’ Choice: the youngest guest picks a card for the whole table.

  4. Save favorite prompts in a jar to revisit at dessert—or again next year.
