T (age 18) needed a game idea to take to a college and career Christmas party, tonight. After he searched one out, and gathered up his supplies, I thought it might not be a bad idea to have a list of quick and easy, Christmas themed games at our fingertips.
In keeping with the Christmas countdown I seem to have fallen into this Christmas, I found enough games to last us from now until Christmas Day.
1. Christmas Rollick (Reverse Charades)
2. Tiny Prints has 30 well explained, simple, but fun Christmas games (my favorite is "Candy Canes" like "Spoons" but with candy canes - rules included on the site).
3. Printable Nativity Quiz - test your knowledge of what's really in the Bible story.
4. Printable Christmas Carol Quiz from LifeWay.com. Can you guess the carols from the synonym laden clues?
5. Online Christmas Songs Picture Game - guess the songs represented by the pictures, answers embedded in the graphics.
6. Christmas Oven-Mitt Game - Needs several sets of Christmas oven mitts, and a couple of bags of Christmas themed Hershey Kisses.
