Spin the wheel Christmas would you rather
Choices that start a conversation
Would you rather questions work because they have no wrong answers. A seven-year-old, a teenager and a grandparent can all pick a side, and then someone asks why. The 40 choices here are short, about winter and the holidays, and safe for any age. Nothing is scary, rude or about money.
Most entries pair two things that are both good, which makes the choice fun: sled or ice skates, cookies or candy canes, real tree or fake tree. A few are silly on purpose, like flying like a reindeer or being cold forever. They are easy to read from across the room and fit on a classroom board.
Teachers use it as a brain break between lessons, parents use it on long drives, and office teams use it as a lighthearted warm-up. If you want a this or that style game, ask players to stand on one side of the room for the first option and the other side for the second.

Questions about the game
Are these questions appropriate for kids?
Yes. Every question is clean and family friendly. For very young children, read each one slowly and show the two choices with your hands, one in each, so they can point.
Can I use them as a classroom brain break?
Yes. A spin takes about a minute and gets the class moving if you ask students to stand on one side of the room. It is a good fit for the last days before winter break.
What is the difference between would you rather and this or that?
They are almost the same. This or that uses single words, like cookies or candy canes, and would you rather often adds a bit more detail. All the entries here can be played either way.
How do I make it funnier for adults?
Ask players to defend the choice as if in a courtroom, or add your own absurd options in Entries, like carrying a tree up five floors or wrapping every gift in newspaper.
How many questions are there?
Forty. You can delete any you do not like, and the Original list button brings the whole set back.
