Christmas Party...I know it's still 4 months away, but I need help!?

Question

ok I'm having a huge Christmas get together with friends. I am in charge of the group games...does anyone out there have some really fun games we can play?

Age group is between 18-55.

Answer 1

Name those Logos
Go through several magazines and cut out advertisement symbols (ie. the 7up dot, but not the word 7up). Paste each on the white side of a 3x5 card and have everyone go around the room with an answer sheet and try to identify as many of the symbols as possible


Who am I?
Pick a category such as cartoon characters, movie stars, vegetables, etc. Pin the name of one of these items on the back of each guest as they arrive. Tell them that they need to find out who they are by asking other people for help.

The rules are:

ask yes or no questions only
answer yes or no questions
no removing your own name tag to find out. If you ask, anyone will help you find out your identity.
If you need people seated or grouped up this may be a good way to do it. Have place cards at the seat of each item. Or have a few different categories of item to guess. Then when it comes time to group up have the cartoon characters go here, vegetables there, etc.



Santa Hat Game
For festive gatherings with Santa hats. You need everyone to be wearing a hat, so either use the ever popular Santa hats, or otherwise give everyone a normal party hat.

The game is based on observation. the objective is NOT to be the last person left with a hat on.

At the start announce the simple objective, the only rule is that no one can take their hat off until you have.

Let another game or conversation take place, and as time goes by, people will take their attention off you, and even forget the game is happening. Eventually remove your hat and watch as people cotton on. Gradually the hats will come off, amidst sniggers and smirks. Some unsuspecting person (who’s probably busy boring everyone with a hopeless story)
will be last to notice, and much to every ones’ mirth, this person is the loser.

Serve up an appropriate forfeit, get the hats back on and give the loser the chance to start the next game.


Sock Guessing Game
You take a new pair of thick thermal socks. You know the gray ones that hunters use in the winter. Then you put objects, that you see or use around Christmas time, into the socks. Make sure you put the same things in each sock. Things like holly, scotch tape, ornament, pine cone, etc. Make sure you put about 20 to 25 different objects in. Tie a ribbon or rope around the opening to make sure nobody peeks. Give everyone a piece of paper and pass the socks around at your party and tell them how many objects there are in the sock and have them write down all they can feel. Two socks just makes the game go a little faster. The person that guesses the most objects is the winner.


Christmas Fun - Twelve Days of Christmas
Great for larger offices over 30. Group everyone into 12 teams, it can be random or have people count off from 1-12. Then group the teams together and give each one a verse of the twelve days of Christmas. Each team was responsible for singing one verse of the song. As you know, the song repeats itself, with a new verse added each time. The best part of all is that as the teams sing their verse, they are to act out the verse (i.e. eight maids a milking, six geese a laying). It is hillarious to see the interpretations that each group had for what motions should be acted out. Each team should be allowed to gather together at first to determine what motions they plan to do. This game seems simple, but it is a bonafide riot!

Answer 2

What i've got performed so a techniques: - examine my genealogy and get ready a e book to contemporary it to something of my fam - have been given in good condition, lost weight and run a 0.5 marathon - performed a mini course in some thing i admire (exterior events so diverse hiking and kayaking) - Learnt to crochet and customarily spent it sluggish coming up issues for my domicile - Learnt to bake (i'm nevertheless tremendously rubbish yet oh nicely I nevertheless have some months to pass!) - Made a dress - long undergone each and every of the path cloth for my degree that i'm returning to in September and learnt stuff in improve - often blitz clean the domicile! - Dyed my hair exciting shades to kill time! - frolicked with people i did not used to have lots time to spend time with - Travelled i don't be responsive to if any of those could be a good in good condition for you yet my perfect suggestion could be to spend time on the failings you may routinely desire you had time to do! 4 months off can sense like a protracted time and might nicely be very daunting besides the undeniable fact that it is going to quickly fly by making use of as quickly as you start to locate issues to do :) each and every of the perfect! x

Answer 3

There is a fun one called story, but you need an odd number of players.

Let us say you have nine people.

Everyone gets nine sheets of paper, about 4X4.

On the top page you write a line.

"Fred was upset that the dog had run away" (Everyone writes a different opening line).

The packet is passed to the person next to you.

They read the line and place that sheet on the bottom, drawing a picture to go with it on the second sheet.

The packet goes to the next person. They see the picture and put that sheet on the bottom, coming up with a line that fits that picture, placed on the third sheet.

At the end of it, you see what kind of story you got.

Answer 4
