Some Really Fun Christmas Party Ideas

Expert Author Zara Jones

Are you hosting the family get together this Christmas or perhaps you are just having friends around? Are you worried that everyone will just sit around and it will be a really boring event? Well why not brighten it up with some Christmas party games. There are a whole host of options whether you are trying to entertain adults or children. Here are a few ideas to get your creative juices flowing.

Christmas Charades: For a twist on a favorite Christmas party game, use familiar Christmas events as the charade. Use events such as stuffing the turkey, decorating the tree, wrapping gifts etc. If you're going to have a party for children and need games suited to their age level, choose from among these fun games:

Mystery Stocking: Take a large stocking and put several Christmas related items suitable for a child inside. Make sure the top of the stocking is fastened securely. Pass the stocking around and let each child have a few minutes to feel it. Then have them write down what they think is inside (or tell you if they're too young). The child with the closest guess wins the stocking.

Word Formation: Have sheets of paper for each child. At the top of the paper, write the words 'Merry Christmas' or 'Happy Holidays.' The object is to write as many words as possible using only the letters at the top of the page. Give a five minute time limit.

Pin the Toys in the Sleigh: Tape a sleigh to the wall. Give each child a paper 'present'-something you might find in Santa's sleigh. Blindfold each participant on his or her turn and have them try and pin the present inside the sleigh. Closest one wins.

These are just a few examples so put on your thinking cap and see what else you can come up with and make sure that your Christmas party is not a dull affair, have fun!
