New Year's Trivia Game Ideas
New Year's trivia can be used for kids or adults in fun or educational settings. You can find lots of creative trivia games to play that incorporate these New Year's Eve and New Year's Day facts.
- Use trivia questions as a quiz where each participant writes answers on a personal copy.
- Create a classic trivia competition by having a host read each question aloud. The first team to give a correct answer gets a point. Increase point values so multiple-choice questions are worth the least and open-ended questions are worth the most.
- Open-ended questions work great with a Jeopardy-style game where there is only one correct answer.
- Use true or false questions in a speed bonus round. The host reads off questions, and the player shouts out answers before time runs out.
