4 party ideas for Xmas

4 party ideas for Xmas

Christmas is right on the horizon and it might be getting difficult for some of you to hold in your glee. After all, it is like the oscar of the festivals, there is some drama, some family time, some entertainment, and a lot of gifts and sweets. As much as we love keeping up the traditions, it doesn’t hurt to change things up a little. Here are a few ideas that can give you one more reason to celebrate the impending celebration

Have a gift wrapping race

Every year when the holiday season is around the horizon everyone gets busy shopping for gifts and then wrapping them. This year make an event out of it. Inform everyone beforehand so that you all can arrange cardboard or plain boxes and Christmas cards on time. This will help you keep things a surprise for the giftee and you can have a fun time seeing how lousy the packaging can get if there is a clock ticking in the background.

DIY holiday cards

If you’re looking for an activity that would keep everyone right from kids to grandparents occupied, this might be the one for you. Arrange a family day where you all sit around the table reminiscing about your older Xmas memories and your favorite things about the holiday season. All the while you all also create your very own Christmas cards to gift to the other people around the table.

Make Gingerbread cookies

One thing, except for Christmas cards, of course, that can help you keep the kids in the house occupied is baking. Gingerbread is a sign of Christmas being right around the corner. Turn up the volume on the Christmas songs and sleigh your way into the kitchen (not literally). Help the kids bake their first or hundredth gingerbread cookie or take it up a notch and start building a gingerbread house.

Ornament swap

It is soon going to be time to shake the webs off of those Xmas lights and other decorations. The favorite among many is of course the ornaments that go on the trees. Admit it, everyone has that one favorite ornament they want to see on the top of the tree. Why don’t you shake things up a bit and organize an ornament swap evening with your friends? It will serve the dual purpose of enjoying the company and eggnog with everyone, plus everyone gets at least one new ornament to put on their tree.
