“Would You Rather” questions are one of those activities that can instantly get kids talking, laughing, and thinking. You don’t need supplies, setup time, or complicated instructions. All you need is a group of kids and a few silly questions to get the conversation going.

Over the years we’ve used “Would You Rather questions?” in a lot of different settings—homeschool co-op classes, youth activities, family dinners, car rides, and even while waiting for events to start. It’s amazing how something so simple can get kids engaged so quickly.

We also love doing Speed-Dating for Kids (or rather, Speed-Friending) as a way for kids to get to know each other.

One of the things I love most about this activity is that it works for a wide range of ages. Younger kids enjoy the silly choices (like whether they’d rather have a pet dinosaur or a pet penguin), while older kids often start explaining their reasoning and debating with their friends. Before long, everyone is laughing and sharing ideas.

It’s also a great icebreaker activity for groups where the kids may not know each other very well. Sometimes starting conversations can feel awkward, especially in a new co-op or class. But asking a fun question like “Would you rather explore space or the deep ocean?” gives everyone an easy way to participate.

Another benefit is that these questions encourage creative thinking and imagination. Kids have to picture the situation, weigh their options, and decide what they would do. And sometimes the discussion that follows becomes even more entertaining than the original question.

For co-op settings, this activity works especially well at the beginning of class while everyone is arriving, during a short break, or as a closing activity before kids head home. You can ask one question to the whole group, or have kids take turns picking their favorite question from the list.

There are lots of ways to play:

• Have the group raise their hands for their choice
• Move to one side of the room or the other depending on their answer
• Let kids explain why they chose their option
• Turn it into a quick discussion game
• In the swimming pool; swim to each side

Whether you’re looking for a quick activity for a homeschool co-op, something to fill a few minutes before dinner, or just a way to get kids laughing together, these Would You Rather questions are a simple way to spark conversation and creativity.

Below you’ll find a big list of kid-friendly “Would You Rather?” questions that are perfect for groups of all sizes.

Just pick one and see what the kids choose!
