1. Make Hot Cocoa Bar
Hot Cocoa is one of the best parts of the holidays, so why not make it. One thing that you have to upgrade your favorite beverage on Christmas Eve with a whole chocolate bar? Just put both dark and milk chocolate choices along with the wide range of toppings not just whipped cream and marshmallows, but also chocolate shavings, chopped pecans, and crushed-up candy canes, guests will have a one blast building the messiest, craziest, and the most delicious desserts drink they can!
2. Hold A Christmas Cookie Competition To The Next Level
You can play a lot of delicious games on Christmas Eve. Ask everyone to bring a dozen cookies (or two dozen, that depend on how many guests you are having over). Each person who brings cookies can vote on their top three favorites, with three points awarded for a No 1 vote, two points for a No, 2 votes, and one point for No 3 vote. The cookie with the most points wins! (But everyone does this because of cookies)
3. Sprinkle Reindeer Dust In The Front Walkway
Just to be extra sure that Santa makes his way to your house this holiday, urge your kids or grandkids to sprinkle the Reindeer Dust in the Front walkway. If they want to create or they are creative then they arrange reindeer dust in the shape of an arrow so that Santa knows where to drop the presents.
4. Play Snowball Capture
How long has it been since you were in a good old-fashioned snowball fight? If you are someone who lives in a place that gets a good amount of snow, you can turn winter wonderland into a battleground with a game of capture the flag, but instead of tagging someone, you hit them with a snowball.
5. Give Brand New Pajamas
One of the pleasures of Christmas morning is lounging around in your pajamas. So this year you can consider giving everyone in the family a “pre-present”. You can give them new Christmas-themed Pajamas they can wear the next morning. Nothing being cozy as you open your presents and watch Christmas movies all day!
6. Christmas-ify “who I am”
“Who am I?” this the best and also played in large groups. And the best part is that all you need to play, aside from a lot of people is something to write with and sticky notes. Then stick this in everyone’s forehead, each person needs to guess what character they are by asking the other players yes or no questions. The goal is to not be the last person to correctly guess who they are.
7. Play “find Santa’s Friend”
A scavenger hunt to find Santa’s friends is a friendly game in which everyone’s wins. Here's how to set it up. After that collecting a variety of plastic elves and reindeers, hide them throughout the house. Some of Santa’s friends should be easy to find out in just some cases the younger kids choose to play. Whereas other items should be harder to find for the older kids. Each kid that finds Santa’s friends will receive a Christmas gift.
8. Play Bingo With Guest Instead Of Numbers
Playing bingo is having too much fun. Simply create a list of 10 to 15 traits or activities and give every participant the same list. ( be sure to throw in a few holiday-oriented traits and activities to match the Christmas spirit in your home)
Players have to walk around the room and find guests who match up with the items on the list, checking them off as they go. The winner is the person who fills in their list the fastest using a different person for each item.
9. Play “Christmas memory”
Draw eight Christmas images: Christmas tree, Santa, a snowflake, etc., and then make duplicates of each for a total of 16 cards. Place the cards on the table upside down in a 4*4 layout. Each player gets a chance to pick a card and find its match. When a player finds a match, they get to keep it and it counts as a point. Play until someone reaches 20 points, which will take multiple rounds.
This is a silly game that has the added benefit of providing a Christmas party favor for your guests to take home. You will need a lot of candy canes, chopsticks, a large bowl, and a small stocking.
Here’s how to play:
Fill the bowl with the candy and place it on one end of a table. Put the stocking open. Give each person a chopstick to put their hands behind their backs and try to transfer as many candy canes from the bowl to the stocking as they can in one minute using only their chopstick. Whoever gets the most candy canes in the stocking wins!
