40 Christmas Family Feud Questions and Answers

How to play Christmas Family Feud

1. Split into two teams and pick a host who sees the answers.
2. One player from each team faces off. The host reads the question.
3. The first to answer that’s on the board wins the face-off for their team.
4. That team guesses the rest, one player at a time. Three wrong answers and they’re out.
5. The other team then gets one guess to steal the round’s points.

Write the answers on sticky notes and cover them on a wall, or just read them out as they’re guessed. A kitchen pan and a spoon make a perfectly good buzzer.

The answers below are ranked by our own guess at what most people would say. Points are out of 100.

Tips for hosting

• Double or triple the points in the final round so the losing team still has a chance.
• Let the host overrule close answers. “Christmas lights” and “fairy lights” can count as the same thing.
• Keep a printed copy for the host and read answers aloud, rather than showing them on a screen everyone can see.
• Mix one silly question in every round for the kids or the quiet ones.
