A SUPER FUN CHRISTMAS GAME

super-fun-christmas-game*Update – If you like this game, you will also like my fun Christmas Carol Game HERE, as well as my top favorite Christmas-themed Minute-to-Win-It Game Ideas HERE.*

Last year I posted about a fun Gift Exchange Game for you to play with your friends and families during the Christmas season.

You can check it out HERE.  It’s amazing.

THIS YEAR…

I found an even more hilarious game.

All you need are sturdy paper plates (I got mine at Costco) and pens for each player.

The host tells the players to put their paper plate on their head.

Then the host will give a series of instructions for the players to draw on their paper plates (that are on their heads) without looking.

Here are the instructions:

1. Draw a line for a floor.
2. Draw a Christmas Tree.  Add decorations if you feel so inclined.
3. Draw a star on top of your tree.
4. Draw a fireplace with a mantel next to the tree.
5. Draw a stocking hanging from the mantel of your fireplace.
6. Draw a present below the tree.

After the six steps have been given, let everyone look at their plates.

<<Insert lots of laughing and revelry as people share their ridiculous drawings.>>

Then have players count up how many points they received by following this rubric:

1. 2 points if the tree touches the floor.
2. 2 points if your stocking is touching your mantel.
3. 1 point if your star touches your tree.
4. 1 point if your star is above your tree.
5. 1 point for every Christmas ornament ball that is ON your tree, etc.
6. 1 point if your fireplace doesn’t touch the tree (it’s a fire hazard!).
7. 1 point if you actually drew something decorative on your stocking (or something cute, like a tiny kitten peeking out).
8. 2 points if your present is under your tree.

The player with the most points should receive a really awesome prize (such as Christmas Window Clings).

I had a neat opportunity to speak for a large group of super fun women at a local church’s ornament exchange last weekend.

I kicked my Happy Home segment off with this game.

Here are a few pictures of how it went…

What a fun thing to do at your next Christmas event!  Or even just sitting around the table with your family after dinner one night.

    Thank you for this game idea! We played it this afternoon at my son’s Christmas party. The kids LOVED it! I did everything as directed except when it came to figuring out points, I had the kids exchange their masterpiece with a neighbor. I figured that way the points would be more realistic as kids tend to be more generous with their own work. 🙂 That ended up being almost as fun as the game!

I never thought about doing it for the parties at school though…super great idea. My baby is in kindergarten this year so I am not sure they can do it, but I pinned it for the future! I cant wait to see her class do it! Brilliant!! Shared on social media! 🙂

      We are doing this tomorrow at work for New Years and came up with these ideas.
      Draw a line for the floor.
      Draw a clock on the wall showing midnight.
      Draw a table.
      Put some snacks and drinks on the table.
      Draw 2 people at the party kissing.
      Decorate for the party.
      Our points are similar to the original posting. Points for: the clock on the wall and not touching the floor, the table on the floor, the snacks and drinks on the table, 2 people kissing, decorations at the party.
      I can’t wait to hear all of the giggles tomorrow!! Good luck and hope this helps!

    Here is a cute twist to this game. Have everyone write their name on the inside of the plate before they start drawing. When done, one person collects all plates directly from the heads and shuffles them around. Lay it out on the table and everyone has to figure out which plate is theirs.

  • I went to church today. It was so good and so needed. I haven’t been in weeks. It’s funny how I let myself get comfortable with that. I tell myself it’s easier to just watch church at home online. Which is not true because basically every time I do that the children start a wrestling match in the living room while I am trying to listen to the sermon. Or the baby poops during the opening song. Or someone is inevitably injured. But I tell myself how nice it was to not wake up early. How lovely to stay in

  • We got fancy last night for our neighbor’s wedding. ‍♂️The wedding was about an hour drive away, so we had lots of time for car conversations without kids. This usually means that I vomit all the stuff I have been trying to process on my own and Ryan swoops in with a few ultra wise one-liners that talk me off the ledge. Things I learned on the drive... 1. Stop watching the news. Our souls were not made for so much information. 2. Never stop dreaming. Even if your circumstances are hard and you feel all your creativity and hopes

  • When I had covid, this precious mama of mine called me every day. She dropped groceries on our doorstep (and even decorated them with Christmas lights ). She had food delivered to our house. She wore silly Christmas glasses and FaceTimed me to make me smile. She watched every single one of My ABC Truth Tree videos and liked them. She texted me every day to make sure I was taking medicine and drinking enough water. She prayed for me and reminded me that it would all be okay when I called her in tears on Christmas Eve worried that
