Birthday deck

How to play

life's too short for forgettable birthdays

Set Up the Deck 

Divide the Deck into Three Piles:

Pile 1: Reflect & Connect cards – set these aside for the end of the game.

Pile 2: Wildcard and Games/Activities cards – the birthday person will only choose cards from this pile during the game.

Pile 3: Affirmations, Memory Lane, and Connect cards – everyone else will choose from this pile.

How to Play 🎉

Birthday Person’s Turn: The birthday person will select cards only from the Wildcard or Games/Activities categories. They’ll read the card aloud and follow the prompt for some birthday fun.

Other Players’ Turns: All other players will take turns choosing a card from either Pile 2 (Wildcard and Games/Activities) or Pile 3 (Affirmations, Memory Lane, Connect). Each player should read their card aloud and complete the activity or share their thoughts.

Notepad included: Some prompts will ask you to write down your responses. Feel free to share what you write with the group or keep it as a special memory!

Ending the game

Once everyone has taken their turns, it’s time to wrap up the celebration with the Reflect & Connect category. These cards are designed to bring the game to a thoughtful close. Each player (including the birthday person) will select a card from this pile to share, helping everyone reflect on the special memories and connections made throughout the game.

How-To Guide

Welcome to the time capsule activity! This is your chance to capture the special moments and memories from today's celebration and preserve them for the future. Follow these simple steps to create your own time capsule!

Step 1: Choose a container

Find a box, jar, or any container that can hold your memories. This will be your time capsule, so make sure it's something you can seal and keep safe.

Step 2: Gather your memories

Each person should contribute something to the time capsule. Here are some ideas:

Handwritten notes: Write down your thoughts, hopes, and predictions for the future. What do you want to remember about today?

Photos: Take some pictures of the birthday celebration and include them in the time capsule.

Objects or keepsakes: Add small items that represent the day, such as a piece of confetti, a party favor, or a memento from the event.

Step 3: Seal and store

Once everyone has contributed, seal your time capsule. Make sure it is well protected and label it with today's date and the date it should be opened in the future - ideally on the person's next birthday!

  • Most likely to eat dessert for breakfast

  • Best dance moves at a wedding

  • Most likely to survive a zombie apocalypse

Step 2: Take Turns Suggesting Categories

Each player takes a turn suggesting a superlative category for the group. Once a category is proposed, everyone gets a chance to vote on who they think best fits that superlative. Remember to keep the mood light-hearted and fun!

Step 3: Vote!

After each superlative is suggested, the group votes on who should win that title. You can do this by a show of hands or simply shouting out names.

Step 4: Keep the Laughter Going

Keep the game going by continuing to suggest new superlatives until everyone has had a turn to propose a category or until the group runs out of ideas. The more creative, the better!

Bonus: Add a Twist!

Speed Round: Try to come up with as many superlatives as possible in 2 minutes.

Silly Awards: At the end of the game, create mini awards or certificates for the funniest or most outrageous superlative winners.
