How to Play Have You Ever with Kids

The rules are simple (and flexible):

Each player answers honestly-raise a hand, step forward, or just say "yes" or "no"
Let players share a quick story if they want-sometimes the stories are the best part!
Rotate who asks the next question, or let everyone take turns.

Keep it light-hearted and remember: there are no wrong answers, only fun discoveries!
