What You Need

Hand out quiz sheets and pens to each guest. Explain that they need to complete 10-15 nursery rhyme prompts (fill-in-the-blank or match-the-line).

Give guests 8-12 minutes to complete their quizzes. Most correct answers wins! Encourage guests to work at their own pace.

If there's a tie, have guests recite any full nursery rhyme they know. This adds a fun, interactive element to the game!

Capture guests reading nursery rhymes aloud during the tie-breaker. This creates sweet, nostalgic moments and great candid shots.

Is this game good for mixed ages?

Yes! Use picture prompts for younger kids and traditional fill-in-the-blank for adults. This makes it inclusive for all generations.

What if I'm short on time?

Do 8 prompts instead of 10-15, and use a lightning tie-breaker where guests recite any full rhyme they know. This keeps it quick but fun.

Can I customize the quiz for the baby's theme?

Absolutely! Include rhymes that match your theme colors, or add prompts about the parents' favorite childhood rhymes for a personal touch.

How do I handle guests who don't know nursery rhymes?

Mix easy and tricky lines, and always have the answer key ready. You can also do team play so guests can help each other.
