Polkadot printable of Wits and Wagers holiday questions

Our family absolutely loves the board game Wits and Wagers Party Edition. It is one of the most used board games we have in our game closet. We created a printable holiday edition of this classic, and we cannot wait to share it with you!

How to Play Wits and Wagers

There are many different ways to play Wits and Wager, but we think it is the most fun when you play in teams.

What we love about this family game is that kids of literally ANY AGE can play as part of a team. And truth be told, the Wits and Wager questions are so outlandish that sometimes the preschooler's guess is as good as Grandma's answer.

You can have up to six teams playing this game, which makes it a great Christmas party game!

It is perfect for our extended family of twelve. We usually do six groups of two. BUT you could have six groups of six and play with a huge crowd of thirty-six people and still have a blast.

This is a collection of our most recommended family board games. You can see Wits and Wagers Party right there in the middle of the stack!

Christmas Wits and Wagers Rules

We followed the same general Wits and Wager rules as always with this fun Christmas game.

  1. Someone reads a Wits & Wagers game question.
  2. Everyone writes down their guess.
  3. The answers are placed face-up on the table and ordered smallest to largest.
  4. Players place their betting tokens on the guess they think is closest to the right answer.
  5. The answer is read, and players score one poker chip for a correct bet or for having the closest guess.
  6. On the final question, players can bet their poker chips. The player with the most poker chips after this question wins.

P.S. A quick reminder to let go of supposed-to this holiday season...

Roll the dice. Playing board games together over the holidays is an opportunity to slow down, bring your family together, and give them your presence. Ironically, the joy of Family Game Night is not found in playing the board game itself, but rather in the space between turns. It’s the conversations and the playful banter that make this family night of togetherness such a wonderful experience.
