Your stomach drops.

Stop scrolling. You have found the definitive resource.

This is the ultimate list of “clean” Never Have I Ever questions for kids. We have curated over 100 totally kid-friendly, parent-approved prompts guaranteed to get giggles, groans, and surprising confessions from kids of all ages, without any of the worry.

How to Play the Kid-Friendly Version

The traditional version of this game involves drinking, which obviously doesn’t work here. Here are the two best ways to play with kids:

1. The Ten Fingers Method (Classic): Everyone holds up ten fingers. You go around the circle reading questions. If you have done the thing mentioned, you put one finger down. The last person with fingers still up wins.

2. The Candy Currency Method (Fan Favorite): Give every player 10 pieces of candy (like jelly beans, M&Ms, or Skittles) or 10 pennies. Place a bowl in the center. If you have done the thing mentioned, you have to put one piece of your “currency” into the center bowl. The person with the most candy left at the end wins (and everyone gets to eat their stash!).

Final Thoughts for Parents

The best part of playing “Never Have I Ever” with kids isn’t seeing who wins, it’s the hilarious stories that come out when someone sheepishly puts a finger down. Use these moments! If your child puts a finger down for “pretended the floor was lava,” ask them about the most epic lava battle they ever fought.

This game is more than just a time-killer; it’s a fun, low-pressure way to connect with your kids and learn a little bit more about the funny, weird, and wonderful ways their minds work.

Happy playing!
