Keep It Exciting With Christmas Games

Christmas is a time for gatherings of all kinds and Christmas games. Whether it is an office Christmas party, a Children's Christmas Party, or a family celebration, Christmas games add fun and spread the Christmas spirit!

No matter what type Christmas party you are planning, one Christmas game that is always fun is the forbidden word game. You have probably seen this game many times, and variations on it are always popular at baby showers, wedding showers, etc. It works just as well as a Christmas game, and your guests are sure to be laughing all the while.

Simply hand out some type of token as guests arrive, so that each one has one. A good suggestion is a simple garland necklace. Choose one Christmas theme word ahead of time. Tell each person that they must not use this particular word all day long. Some good examples are "tree" or "present" but most any word will do. Anytime one person hears another person using the forbidden word, they get to take their necklace (or whatever token you have handed out) and at the end of the party, the person with most necklaces wins a present!

Christmas Games

Christmas at the Office is a perfect time for a Christmas Carol Contest!
A good choice for Christmas games held at the office is a Christmas Carol contest!

Choose a few contestants ahead of time to judge the competition. Let everyone showcase their talent by singing with or without music. Give winners gag gifts, novelties, or computer generated certificates, and let the winners have several categories such as "Best Singer" "Best Dancer" "Worst singer" "Most Original" "Most Humorous" and whatever else you can come up with.

The most important element for enhancing your Christmas party with fun games for everyone is to consider the ages of your guests and make the games simple enough so that even the youngest guests have a chance to win, and everyone keeps smiling while they are enjoying your get together!
