How to do it

Grown-up prep: Nothing to gather! Skim the ideas list and keep every question silly, not scary, so little ones stay giggly.

1. Sit in a circle so everyone can see each other.
2. Pick who goes first and who goes next.
3. Ask a silly spooky either-or question to the next person.
   Ask: What is the silliest spooky choice you can think of?
4. Pick one option and say it out loud.
5. Tell everyone why you picked it.
6. Pass the turn and ask the next person a new question.
7. Try a twist: act out your choice for three seconds.
8. Do one last round with your wildest question yet!
9. Now ask your friends and family, or make up new spooky questions!
   Ask: Who else should we ask tonight?

Play it again

• Guess my pick: everyone guesses what the answerer will choose before they say it.
• Rhyme time: your reason has to rhyme with your choice.
• Monster mashup: invent a brand new third option and explain why it beats both.
