Jousting Spoons

Each person holds a spoon with a wad of paper in it. Two players joust by trying to knock the wad off the other player’s spoon without their own wad falling. If you have more than two players, play elimination rounds until there is just one winner.

Each person takes a turn being it and everyone else tries to make them laugh. They can do anything except touch the person. Keep track of how long they go without laughing. Whoever can go longest is the winner.

License Plate Phrases

Take turns making phrases out of license plates. For instance, EDP could be “Every Dog Pants,” or “Eagles Don’t Party.” Set a time limit and if a person can’t come up with a phrase within the limit, they are eliminated. Last person wins!

Marriage Game

The kids get to ask the parents questions to see how much they know about each other. For instance, “What were you wearing the first time you both met?” Or, “What is Dad’s favorite food?” Or, “What is Mom’s all-time favorite movie?” If Dad is driving, Mom writes down her answer first, and then Dad says his answer (or vice versa if Mom is driving). Give them one point for each answer that matches.
