There's a lot more to planning your Christmas party than just
the food. You're going to need some fun activities to get your
guests into the holiday spirit. From crafts to decorations we've
got some entertaining activity ideas for planning a joyful
Christmas party.
These activities and games will work for both Adults and kids.
If you're planning a party exclusively for children, also visit
our Party Activities for Children page for some additional
ideas.
Send Themed Party Invitations
Send out Christmas-themed party invitations with snowmen, Santas,
or a Victorian look. Add all of the information your guests will
need and include any details for a gift exchange if you're
planning one.
Go Christmas Caroling
Caroling is one of the all-time favorite activities for
Christmas parties. Print off copies of traditional holiday songs
and pass them out. Make some phone calls to nursing homes,
senior citizen centers, veteran's homes or homeless shelters to
set up an appointment. They often welcome carolers and it will
be spread some Christmas cheer. Bundle up and provide coffee and
hot chocolate to your guests when you're finished.
Provide Food & Goodies
What is a Christmas party without food and treats? Have plenty
of snacks on hand to satisfy hungry guests. Enlist in some help
and not only will you have more variety, you will ease your
stress level considerably.
Have a Gift Exchange
Everyone loves to exchange gifts at Christmas parties. Set a
price limit and advise guests that wish to participate to bring
gifts according to the them you set. Generic, decorations, gag
gifts etc. all make fun gifts and gives them an idea of what to
bring.
Organize a Scavenger Hunt
Scavenger hunts are not only for Halloween and Thanksgiving.
Plan a hunt with a Christmas theme. This will get your friends
out and about to meet new people. Award prizes to the winning
team.
Trim the Tree
Take the opportunity to provide a festive activity and at the
same time, getting much-needed help for Christmas decorating.
Consider stringing homemade popcorn and using original
decorations. It's great fun in the classroom or office too.
Deck the Halls
This works great with family parties. Recruit all family members
to help you decorate your house for Christmas. Make a party out
of it and have some tasty snacks on hand to reward their
assistance.
