Get the family together for this family-friendly Christmas quiz!
The past few years were certainly been the year of online quizzes, wasn’t it? We were hosting family quiz nights on Zoom on an almost weekly basis of lockdown.
To keep family spirits high we had been getting into the festive mood as soon as possible. We organised a family Christmas quiz where everybody joined the Zoom video call wearing something festive along with their own drink of choice and some nibbles.
We then spent the next couple of hours playing the family quiz. It always seems to take us longer than most people as our family seems to have to discuss and debate almost every question and answer. Everyone has an opinion in our family! Ha!
The family Christmas trivia quiz was so much fun and we laughed so much. In the spirit of sharing, we thought you might also like to do the same and to save you time on coming up with questions you can see the questions and answers below to use how you wish.
If you’re looking for Christmas quiz questions then this is a simple family edition that should serve you well.
We hope you enjoy your simple Christmas quiz with family and friends. And if you would like more fun or unusual Christmas quiz ideas check out this epic list of other Christmas quizzes we have for you.
