Confidence for good parenting
This isn't just a card game. It's a research-informed communication framework, developed with psychologists, communication specialists and behavioral experts to help people who barely know each other get to an easy, genuine conversation - fast, and without anyone feeling interrogated.
Break the Ice Without Trying
The first questions are light, specific and fun to answer. Nobody has to be clever, nobody has to volunteer anything personal, and the awkwardness lifts before anyone has noticed it happening.
Find the Common Ground
Because the questions are about experience rather than credentials, people surface the things they actually have in common — which is what turns an exchange of job titles into an actual conversation.
Leave Knowing Each Other
By the fourth or fifth card people are actually telling stories rather than just answering questions. That's the difference between having met someone and actually knowing them.
Every prompt is developed, reviewed, and refined with the help of 65+ qualified experts, including:
Communication and human-behavior specialists
Licensed therapists and counselors
Educators and group facilitators
Each question goes through multiple rounds of expert review - word by word - to ensure it’s:
Safe to ask anyone you've just met
Free of anything political, confrontational or divisive
Interesting enough that people want to answer it
This level of care is why over one million people trust our cards - and keep coming back to them.
It's been an honor to help make Talking Point Card packs. They're simple, intuitive to use, and encourage people to open up in ways they may have previously avoided.

Less awkward than the silence, and almost always over in one card.
The usual pattern: someone raises an eyebrow, you read the first question anyway, and within a minute the cards are on the table and forgotten. If it helps, hand them to the most outgoing person in the room and let them do it.
Anyone you don't know well yet.
Coworkers and new teams, extended family at gatherings, your partner's friends, new neighbours, groups and clubs, camps, classrooms, share houses, long journeys with people you've just met. If you already know the person inside out, one of our other decks will serve you better.
You don't have to announce a game.
Most people just ask one of the questions as a question - no deck, no explanation, no turn-taking. The cards are the source of the material, not a set of rules anyone has to agree to.
Every prompt is written to be answerable from around age 10 up.
And appropriate for any age in the room, including children. Nothing assumes a career, a relationship, kids, a religion or a political view.
No.
Every question is reviewed specifically to be non-political, non-confrontational and non-judgmental. That's deliberate - this deck gets used at work functions and family gatherings, which is exactly where a badly chosen question does damage.
Small Talk is for people you don't know well - it gets you past the weather.
Big Laughs is for people you already know - it's built for a room that's already comfortable and wants to be in stitches. Different jobs, no overlapping questions.
It's one of the most common uses.
Teams use it for stand-ups, offsites, onboarding and icebreakers, and it avoids the two things that make corporate icebreakers unbearable: forced vulnerability and pretending to enjoy it.
Under $35 for 200 questions you'll use for years.
Set against one work function you dreaded, or one family gathering where nobody knew what to say to each other, that's not a close call.
Then you pay nothing.
Every order comes with a 60-day money-back guarantee. Try it properly and if it isn't for you, contact us for a full refund. No hoops and no awkward questions.

What real couples are saying
Great stress free conversation starters. I use these to lead social groups with middle schoolers and they enjoy them. I’ve also placed a few on the tables for teachers to use on PD days before we get started and they’ve enjoyed them too.
These are very useful to encourage conversation!
This is a great conversation starter. Used it at a luncheon and it was a great hit. Also used it with my 14 or old granddaughter. We had some great moments and insight into each other.
Even grandparents joined in.
Soooooooooo good! Fabulous ice-breaking fun. 🤩
So easy to start.
A fun activity.
