Summer Vacation Small Talk Game: Dice Game for Sharing Stories After the Holidays

The Summer Holidays Small Talk game is a dice game in which children answer questions about their holiday experiences. With this post-summer holiday game, they can move their game piece around the board and talk about camping, animals, adventures or the funniest moment of their holidays.

What is included

• Game board with start and finish squares, question squares about the summer holidays and action squares for skipping, moving forward and going back
• Instruction sheet with brief game instructions

Tips for using the material

• Post-holiday icebreaker: The game is ideal as a relaxed start to lessons after the summer holidays.
• Take turns: Players can take turns rolling the dice and moving forward accordingly; whoever lands on a question square answers the question, and whoever reaches the finish square first wins.

These skills are promoted

• Talking about yourself when answering questions about your own experiences
• Linguistic expressiveness through free answers to open questions
• Getting to know each other, because everyone talks about their holidays and gets into conversations with one another

Organizational notes

To play, you need a die and one game piece per person.

To complement the start of the school year, there is also the Summer Holidays Bingo, the Holiday Review for Filling Out and Talking About and the Movement Game About Holiday Experiences.
