Spend Christmas with Quizado: The Ultimate Christmas Q&A for You and Your Family

August 30, 2021

The snowflakes are falling outside, the streets are covered with white fluff, and there's soft winter music playing in the background. The kitchen is filled with the smell of gingerbread, boiling cranberries and family conversations. Uncle Bob is helping aunt Mary with decorating the Christmas Tree, and Nana Donna is wrapping up the Christmas presents.

Everyone takes care to make this Christmas perfect. At the end of the day, as Addy Williams sings, it’s the most wonderful time of the year! Even children are engaged, though they usually run around the house. As people are busy with their holiday duties, you can hear the conversation between little cousins.

“If you were Santa Claus, what item would you need to dress up?” Kevin asked. “Hmm, probably a long, white beard”. Sam answered. “And the red suit”. He added.

Kevin shaked his head noddingly. Then, uncle Bob decided to chime in into the conversation and asked boys about the most popular Santa’s reindeers. Kevin and Sam immediately shouted “Rudolph”.

Suddenly, all of the householders starts asking questions about Christmas, and everyone seemed engaged enough to come up with the answers as quickly as possible. Turns out, it’s not a simple conversation anymore, but rather… a competition.

Well, as they say, home, sweet home.

“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…Trivia!” You started humming.

Why Hosting a Christmas Trivia Game?

Nothing says Christmas like laughter and bonding with loved ones. A trivia game does more than just entertain; it ignites conversations, sparks creativity, and fills the room with joy by creating moments of hilarity as players debate about the best answers.

With Quizado, you can take this experience to the next level. Imagine your family and friends guessing Family Feud-styled answers about classic Christmas traditions, beloved Christmas movies, or holiday foods (who can resist discussing gingerbread cookies or Christmas hams?!).

What sets Quizado apart is its interactive and competitive nature. Rather than just asking questions, players try to predict the most popular answers based on surveys, which adds an exciting twist to the game. The unique approach ensures that no matter the age or knowledge level, each player feels involved and has fun.

Hosting a trivia game also adds a structured activity to your gathering, preventing lulls, and ensuring that everyone remains entertained. It’s a chance to share laughs and reminisce about favorite holiday memories, enjoying friendly competition – all while celebrating the Christmas spirit.

How to Play Christmas Trivia with Quizado?

Playing Quizado is as easy as decorating a Christmas tree (though, we know this one can be tricky sometimes). Based on our game experience, here are our recommendations how you can get started:

Download Quizado: Start by downloading the app on your preferred device – smartphone, tablet, or laptop. Quizado supports iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS systems, so you should be fine with setting this up.

Choose Your Game Theme: Opt for the pre-loaded Christmas trivia questions*, or create your own (we recommend to keep reading, as we will share sample Christmas questions and answers later).

Create Teams: Invite the participants and split players to various teams. We recommend dividing into two teams. However, with Quizado, you can set up 6 teams, at most.

Play the Game: Choose the host of the game, who is going to be responsible for reading out the questions and let players guess the top answers. The more popular their guesses, the more points they earn. We recommend connecting the buzzer, so it’s easier for both players and host to see who gives the answer first.

Crown the Winner: Add an extra layer or excitement with Christmas-themed prizes. We advise considering offering small gifts like ornaments, candy canes, or even homemade treats to the winner. Honestly, who doesn't like gifts, especially on Christmas?

*Note: they are randomly added to all available question sets.)

Enhance Your Christmas Experience

Playing Quizado isn’t just about answering trivia questions – it’s about creating a shared experience that enhances your Christmas celebration. Imagine the sound of laughter as everyone debates about the best Christmas movie (while there are so many! We strongly recommend “Love Actually”.), or the competitive spirit, when someone nails the top answer.

For families celebrating remotely, Quizado becomes a bridge that connects loved ones across miles. With its virtual compatibility, no one has to miss out on the holiday cheer.
If you want to make things even more festive, here’s our advice:

Pair your trivia game with some cozy holiday snacks, a playlist with Christmas vibes, and the prize for the most spirited player. Remember, the memories you create will last far beyond the season.
