It’s that time of year to give thanks and appreciate all the things around us. Food, family, and football all go hand in hand this time of year. Games are also a big part of the Thanksgiving break and a great way to interact with each other and forget about life for a while.
A successful Thanksgiving is one where there are no family arguments right? LOL. Eliminating stressful situations or awkward conversations can be easier said than done. But music can be a great way to bring people together. Playing music and asking people if they can name that tune is an easy & fun icebreaker. Especially if it’s been a while since you’ve seen each other.
Speaking of trivia, I have some for you. You can use this in your get-together today too. Can you name the top 10-selling board games of all time?
- The Game of Life
- Clue
- Candy Land
- Monopoly
- Scrabble
- Battle Ship
- Risk
- Stratego

And because we will start listening to Christmas songs more and more, can you name the top ten Christmas songs of all time?
- ‘White Christmas’ by Bing Crosby
