Get to know the people at your table,
one question at a time.
2–6 PEOPLETHREE WAYS TO PLAYAT YOUR OWN PACE
- 01
Set the table.
Gather 2–6 people. Separate the three types of cards and place each stack face down in the middle.
- 02
Draw & read.
Choose someone to start. Begin with a Family Recipe if you have one, or draw from Take a Side. Read the card to everyone.
- 03
Go around.
The reader answers first. Go clockwise, giving everyone a chance to answer or pass. For shared activities, build an answer together. Follow-ups are welcome.
- 04
Pass it on.
Set the used card aside. The person to the reader’s left draws and reads the next card. Choose any of the three stacks.
- 05
Leave with a plan.
When you feel like wrapping up, draw from Make a Plan. Choose something small to do together, then ask how it went next time.

Ready when you are.
A separate instructions card keeps the basics close at hand. Keep the five Family Recipes together in their own soft sleeve, ready for the next time you gather.

FIVE CARDS. YOUR TABLE’S TRADITIONS.
Your Family
Recipes.
Some questions deserve a regular place at dinner. Family Recipes are five write-your-own cards for the familiar questions your table comes back to. Ask them again next time; the answers will have moved on. For family, chosen family, and whoever pulls up a chair.
Try “What deserves a toast this week?” or “What should we make together next time?” Keep a favorite in the box and bring it out whenever you gather.
Planned edition: 55 printed prompts + 5 Family Recipes = 60 play cards, plus a separate rules card. Also planned: a translucent sleeve for Family Recipes, a branded blue golf pencil with eraser, and a butter-yellow mini clipboard. Final contents are in development.
Something to
look forward to.
A new story. A standing question. A plan for next Sunday. The Table is taking shape, one good reason to gather at a time.
