How you compare

Vote on a few questions and your results show up here.

How to play

  • For an easy brain break, call out a pair and have students jump to the left for the first choice or to the right for the second.
  • Play a lineup game: students split into two lines by their answer, then each person finds a partner in the other line and shares a reason.
  • For kids who can't read yet, say each pair out loud and have them point to your left hand or your right hand to vote.
  • On car rides, rapid-fire ten pairs in a row and see who can answer every one without stopping to think.
  • Use a pair as a journal starter: students write "I picked this because..." and finish the sentence in their own words.
  • At morning meeting, ask one pair and let every student answer as you go around the circle.

Playing in a group? Read a question out loud, let everyone pick a side, then tap the one the room chose and see how it compares with everyone online.

Questions people ask

What are good this or that questions for kids?

Good ones are two short choices a kid can picture right away, like "swings or slide" or "chicken nuggets or fish sticks." Mixing easy picks with a few tricky ones keeps the game moving. Every pair on this page is safe for school.

How do you play this or that?

One person reads two choices and everyone picks the one they like better. You can answer out loud, raise a hand or move to one side of the room. Ask a few kids to explain their pick to keep the conversation going.

What are good this or that questions for middle schoolers?

Middle schoolers like pairs about their own lives, such as "earbuds or headphones" or "class clown or teacher's pet." The last section on this page is written for 6th through 8th graders. They work well as quick icebreakers on the first day of school.
