Candy Cane Connection
Ingredients
Candy Canes
Christmas Sugar Cookies

Buy a collection of candy canes and break them in half.
Mix out the halves and hand them out to your guests.
When all have arrived, have them try to find the other half of their candy canes! You can play this game with Christmas sugar cookies, too!
Christmas Hunt
Ingredients
Paper
Markers
To Play
Write out a list of Christmas related items on a piece of paper and photocopy enough for each of your guests.
Divide guests into teams or couples, and give them a list of Christmas-related items to locate, either in the house or around the neighborhood. Include items like: a candle, a religious Christmas card, some mistletoe, a Christmas cookie, a broken ornament, a burned-out tree light, a Christmas stamp, some tinsel, and a few pine needles.
Santa in the Lineup
Ingredients
Picture of Santa Claus
Pencils
Paper
To Play
Get a picture of Santa Claus that is not the norm and keep it hidden from the guests until game time.
Give your guests pencil and paper and have them write down every detail they remember about Santa Claus's appearance.
After three minutes, call time. Show the picture of Santa and see how many details they got right. The one with the most wins a prize. For added fun, make them draw a detailed picture of Santa, then hold them up for all to see or tape them to the walls!
Christmas Bingo
Ingredients
Stationery
To Play
Make up Bingo cards before the guests arrive. Draw a grid. Then fill in with things related to Christmas, mixing them up for each card. For example, you might include:
"Still hasn't finished shopping."
"Is wearing red tonight."
"Doesn't like eggnog."
"Did the tree trimming."
"Knows what's s/he's getting for Xmas."
"Plans to return at least one gift."
"Ate too much at the last party."
"Bought a new outfit for tonight."
"Knows all the reindeers' names."
"Made figgy pudding once."
"Sang carols this week."
Make small cards to match the items on the grid.
Gather the guests and hand out the cards, along with a handful of small Christmas candies.
Pick a card from the pile and read the statement. If anyone can answer, "yes" to the comment, they get to put a candy in the square. The first person to connect five in a row wins a prize.
Gift Exchange

Pieces of Paper
To Play
Ask your guests to bring an inexpensive wrapped gift (appropriate for both a man or woman), with no gift tag on it.

Cookie Exchange
Ingredients
Paper Plates
To Play
Have guests bring three-dozen of their favorite cookies. Place the cookies on a table.
When all have arrived, give the guests a paper plate and let them go around the table collecting cookies from each platter, until they have three dozen mixed cookies to take home!
Ornament Exchange
Ingredients
Numbered Pieces of Paper
To Play
Have guests buy an ornament for the tree and bring it to the party wrapped and unlabeled.
Pass out numbers and let the guests choose a wrapped ornament in order.
Each guest gets to keep an ornament.
