Sample Dinner Games
Counting Moo (Ages 5 - 12)
Go around the table counting, starting with the number one. Whenever you get to an even number, say “Moo.” For example, “one, moo, three, moo, five, moo…”Anyone who misses a “Moo” or a correct number must take a sip of milk and start the game over. Variation - Try this with odd numbers, prime numbers, or multiples of 3 depending on the ages of your children.
Get To Know Ya Trivia(Ages 5 - 12)
Each of the kids test the adults with 4 questions. For example: What do I usually play at recess? Who are my two favorite school friends? What is my favorite class? What is my least favorite school meal?
Then, the adults test the kids with their own 4 questions. For example: Where was I born? Where did I go to Elementary school? Where were my parents born? What cities have I lived in?
Make up your own questions to continue to learn more about each other.
What’s in the Sock? (Ages 5 - 12)
One person begins by hiding a “secret” object in a clean sock. He or she passes the sock around the table and lets everyone feel the object. No peeking! Everyone guesses what’s in the sock, and whoever guesses correctly leads the next round. Alternative: Try using an oven mitt to make the game more challenging.
How to Play the Original Dinner Games?
The Original Dinner Games are quick, simple, and fun. Each dinner game takes just a few minutes to play and are enjoyable for kids and parents alike.
To play, families just sit down to their dinner, pick a card, and read it aloud to play. Kids love picking the cards, so give all of them a chance to choose.
While the dinner games have been designed for ages 5 - 12, you may want to change some of the games slightly so they are either easier or more challenging. There are suggestions on each dinner game card to help parents with this.
The dinner games are stacked randomly. You can play them in order from 1 - 51, or you can simply pick out a card. Each dinner game card is color-coded for your reference.
For the Original Dinner Games (ages 5 - 12) the color codes are green for number & math games, pink for phonics and vocabulary games, blue for social skill games, purple for creative & critical thinking games, yellow for silly games, and maroon for memory games.
