Family Quiz Questions

Grandma with grandchildren Liz and Philip

Fun Family Quiz Time

Welcome,

Let’s cheer ourselves up with a family quiz by strolling down Memory Lane recalling happier times. 

This quiz works well on a video call and is a great way of including grandparents who sometimes struggle to hear on these kind of calls, making them the centre of attention, with everyone listening to them. Don’t forget to record the answers through audio, writing them down or video, this quiz will become a cherished memory.

If you'd like the questions in a Word document, more questions or you'd like to know more about writing your life story please email me: info@elizabethstraw.com.

How it works

These questions are designed for grandchildren to ask grandparents. Chat with your grandparents,  give them the questions beforehand and some prompts looking at family photos, heirlooms or any objects which jog the memory. Don't rush the quiz, take your time and stop when grandparents get tired, you can continue another day.

Prepare grandchildren by giving them a selection of questions to ask.

  • Appoint a quizmaster.  
  • Ask a question.
  • Family members write down their answer (lots of guesses needed)
  • Grandma or Grandad answers. 
  • One point for each correct answer. 
  • Winner gets a prize.
  • Enjoy!
