Would you rather…
Questions about turkey, pie, family traditions and the food coma that follows. Use them to keep the kids' table busy or to start a debate over dessert.
How to use these at Thanksgiving
Hand the kids' table a list and let them quiz the adults, or go round the table between courses. It gives relatives who only see each other once a year something easy to talk about.
In class, use one as the warm-up for the week before the break, or pair a question with a short gratitude-writing prompt.
