Fifty wood sticks, each printed with a family-friendly holiday question, in a carrying tube you can pass around the table. Pull one, answer it, pass it on. It does the work of breaking the ice so the host does not have to.
What is a conversation starter game? It is a set of prompts, usually cards, sometimes sticks like these, that give everyone at the table something to answer besides "how is work." It works best with mixed groups: in-laws, office parties, and the cousins you see once a year.
Perfect for: Christmas dinner, office holiday parties, Friendsgiving, holiday girls' nights, white elephant gifts, and stocking stuffers.
