If you’ve never done ‘this or that’ questions with your kids, then now is a good time to give them a go! Similar to would you rather questions, these winter this or that questions will get your kids talking and thinking about which of the two options they would prefer. It’s a great way to start conversations, get to know them better, and just have fun listening to each others answers.
There are no rules or materials required in winter this or that, making it the perfect game to play anywhere or anytime! Just read each question to your child and have them pick the option they’d like more. For example, you can ask, “board games or card games” and they choose which of the two things they would like best.
The great thing about this or that questions is that they can sometimes be open ended in that one child may interpret the question differently than another – and that’s ok! If you ask “sugar cookies or chocolate chip cookies,” one child may think to answer by saying which one they prefer to eat, while another child may say which cookie they prefer to bake. And both responses would be great – there are no right or wrong answers!
I have included 85 winter this or that questions that you can use with your kiddos whenever you need a break from homeschool work, are in the car, waiting for an appointment, traveling, or anytime you just want to add a little fun to your day!
