Christmas is almost here. It is time for family fun. We have some fun Christmas Party games for you. Read below to learn about fun Christmas Party games!
Christmas Stocking Guessing Game
This game is great for the entire family. All you need are Christmas stockings and holiday items to stuff your stockings. Make each stocking have 10 to 15 items. Tie each stocking with ribbon to make sure no one can see what is inside any of the stockings.
Play in teams by giving team members identical stockings. Let each team guess how many objects are in each stocking. The team that guesses the correct items will win them.
Christmas Word Scramble
Use a poster board, pen and paper. Make a list of words related to the holidays. Scramble up the letters contained in these words on the poster board.
Find Santa
Let the family find a hidden Santa throughout the house. You can use a Santa ornament or create a cut out Santa image. Let one player hide the Santa. When players find the Santa, they cannot say they found it. They must sit near it. This game is not about winning but a fun game to do for a holiday party. This is great for children.

Are you searching for ways to entertain the kids for your Christmas Party? If yes, we are here to help by give you a few festive games you can play with the kids this holiday season.
Candy Cane Pass
Candy Cane Pass is a relay race for the kids. All you need are four candy canes per team. Make sure you have a few extras in case the candy canes break during the game.
A player from each team must hold four candy canes between his or her fingers. A player from each team will pass the candy canes down the line, until all team mates have ran the race with the four candy canes. The candy canes cannot be dropped or the whole team has to restart the game. The first team to have completed the tasks wins.
Santa Says
Santa says is similar to the game Simon Says. One player will be Santa and command the elves (the other players) to do tasks such as “Do 10 jumping jacks”. When Santa says ‘stop’ all players must stop. The players that do not stop are eliminated from the game. Santa Says is a great game for young children.
Word Find
Use Christmas themed words such as Christmas, Poinsettia, and Silent Night to make smaller words until the timer runs out. As the words get more challenging, make the time shorter for players to make smaller words. This will make the game fun and challenging.

Are you a parent that often becomes stressed during the holiday season? If yes, we are here to help you by giving you five ways to avoid holiday stress. Read below to find out how!
Shower Daily
We are not telling you to shower daily to keep you smelling clean (although we recommend it); we are telling you to shower daily to give your skin natural lubricants during the drier air winter time. If you feel physically comfortable, you will feel less stressed.
Spend more time with your children.
It is good for children to spend time with parents because there is nothing like the care of parents. Read them a book. Go out to eat. Play games together. The quality time you spend with your children matters now and in the future.
Cooking from Scratch
When you cook from scratch, you appreciate your mealtime and family time much more. Do it with the kids! A great cooking from scratch activity is making a pie or cake together.
A Spotless House
Make sure your house is clean. It does not have to be perfect because your kids need exposure to germs so that their immune systems build up resistance. Wipe down floors, sinks and toilets. A clean environment is a happy environment.

Thanksgiving is a wonderful opportunity to spend a great time with family and friends. Do you know what you have plan for the big day to entertain them? If you are not sure, we are here to help you by giving you a list of games family, friends and you can play after the big meal! Read our game ideas below!
Paper Bag Turkey
Get some paper grocery bags, newspaper and construction paper. Make sure you have a variety of colors for the construction. If the kids are helping out, use child-safe scissors and child safe glue. Stuff the bags with newspapers to form the body of the turkey. For the head, neck and others features of the turkey, cut out the shapes from the construction paper. Glue them to your turkey.
Turkey Treasure Hunt
Take some index cards and crayons. Let the kids draw three pictures of turkeys on these index cards. Hide the cards in your home. Tell the kids to take 15 minutes to find as many of the turkeys as they can find. Who ever gets the most turkeys wins! Grant them all prizes.
Gone Fishin’
Take some cardboard, metal paper clips, an empty bucket, a broom, and string. Cut the cardboard into different Thanksgiving Shapes – turkeys, pilgrims, and leave, just to name a few. Attach paper clips to each one. Put on the shapes into an empty bucket and let the children fish with a broom and string for the shapes. A magnet will help them collect the shapes. Who ever collects the most shapes will win!
