Funny Christmas Games For The Family
Christmas Party Games Everyone Will Actually Want to Play
If there’s one thing my family agrees on every single Christmas, it’s this: ‘the games are just as important as the food’. Once the presents are opened and everyone’s had a snack (or two), it’s game time and that’s where the real memories are made.
These Christmas party games are easy to set up, fun for all ages, and perfect for family gatherings, Friendmas parties, school celebrations, or even office parties that want to keep things light and cheerful. I’ve included games that get people moving, games that make everyone laugh, and a few that bring out just a *tiny* bit of friendly competition.
Christmas String Game
This is a fun surprise-style game where players choose a string and pull to see who wins the prize. Simple, exciting, and great for all ages
Hungry Hungry Reindeer
This game is pure chaos in the best way. Players race to move candy or pom-poms using only their mouths, and it’s just as funny to watch as it is to play.
Christmas Ball Dice Game
This one always gets everyone gathered close and cheering. Players roll dice to pass a wrapped ball around, unwrapping layers as they go until someone scores the prize.

A festive twist on spin the bottle, see what is under each mug?

Christmas party games don’t have to be complicated to be memorable. A few simple supplies, a little friendly competition, and a room full of people ready to laugh is all you really need. Whether you play one or try several, these games are sure to bring energy, connection, and plenty of smiles to your celebration.
Pick your favorites, add your Pinterest video embeds, and get ready for a Christmas party everyone will be talking about long after the decorations come down.
