Happy Friday! I think I am going to make a batch of these little cuties this weekend!

This is a fun game you can play with household items. Chances are for this holiday season you have a pack of marshmallows lying around.

It can be the big puffy ones or the small ones you use to coat the top of a mug of hot cocoa (for a bigger challenge).

The aim of the game is to make as many mini snowmen as you can and give them faces in under a minute.

2. Candy Cane Pile

It's #Christmas in exactly 100 days today so here's a throwback to when we discovered last years' range! We'll let you in on a secret, Christmas will launch in our store next week, on the 25th! What are you hoping to see coming back this year? 🎄 #LushOxfordStreet #LushChristmas #CandyCane #BubbleBar #LushCosmetics

Using the curved end of the official Christmas candy, you endeavor to move as many candy canes from one pile into a bowl in under a minute.

The only catch is you cannot use your hands, only your mouth!

3. Snowball Toss

This fun little game can be played indoors or out.

If played indoors, you can choose to use larger marshmallows or bunched up cotton balls to stand in for real snowballs.

Take a few Christmas wreaths and prop them together. Each wreath is worth a different point, label them from 1 to 10 or however many you wish.

Toss as many “snowballs” into the wreaths as you can. Tally-up the total at the end of the minute and identify your winner!

4. Rudolph’s Nose

We all know the famed red-nosed reindeer, the red nose being his most coveted feature.

It’s very similar to “pin the tail on the donkey”, except it’s pin the nose on the Rudolph poster.

You need some Vaseline, which will be the adhesive in this game and some red pom poms.

Put a dob of Vaseline on either side of the pom pom and attach one end to the blindfolded player’s nose.

See which player comes the closest to giving Rudolph his nose back in under a minute!

5. Racing Baubles

Who is getting excited for christmas? I love to start collecting baubles from around now and we all get to pick a new one each year for our tree . Who else does this? All my handmade pompom baubles are available on my website to pre-order now if you fancy adding one to your tree this year 🎄🎅 . . #christmasdecor #christmasbaubles #christmasdecs #christmas2019 #christmasinseptember #christmas #christmasdecorations #baubles #sloth #unicorn #lama #alpaca alternativechristmas #christmassloth #falalalalama #iceunicorn #iloveunicorns #ilovechristmas #bohemiananimals #penguin #robin #owls #snowyowl

Grab a few baubles off the Christmas tree, don’t worry they won’t break. If you’re smart, you will pick plastic hollow ones as they are lighter.

Lay down a large piece of tape across the floor to act as a starting line. Then a few feet down the room set down another piece for the finish line.

Take paper fans or large pieces of cardboard and start fanning the ornaments to get yours across the finish line first!

6. Christmas Kisses

You might have seen this played with balloons, but for the sake of Christmas, we’re going to use baubles again.

If you just finished playing the Racing Baubles game, you will already have the setup you need for Xmas Kisses.

All you need to do this time is to find a partner, balance the bauble between your lips and make it across the finish line without dropping it.

If you do drop it, you may have your first Xmas kiss without the help of a mistletoe!

7. Stocking Pong

It's that time of year!!! Show your favorite baristas some love! So blessed to work alongside my girl #workfam #thefamilythatworkstogether #brookeb #fillthestocking #starbuckstrussville #whosgonnaplaysanta

Similar to beer pong, stocking pong adopts the same concept, except we swap out the beer cups with stockings, and no beer is involved.

Pin the stockings up on a fireplace or a wall and stand a few feet away.

Start tossing the ping pong balls and try to get as many as you can into the stockings. Remember, you only have 60 seconds!

8. Christmas Ring Toss

For this, you need to set aside a few presents that are not meant for anyone specific.

You can either use hula hoops or rings if you place bottles next to the presents you can use smaller rings.

Everyone gets five different colored rings and one minute to nab the present they want!

Find objects at your local store with the scents of Christmas such as cranberries, cinnamon sticks, peppermint candies, gingerbread, pine cones, etc.

Put each of these objects in a box, and have the labels spread out on a table.

The blindfolded guinea pig needs to identify each of the objects in the box by placing it beside the right label.

10. Face the Gingerbread Man

Are you already feeling the christmas vibe? #gingerbreadman #myfavorite #christmas #christmascookie #cookie #baking #gingerbread

A post shared by @ yougotserved_bycha on Sep 23, 2019 at 12:37pm PDT

Place a gingerbread man cookie on all the players’ foreheads.

Choose the right size, the gingerbread man shouldn’t exceed the length or width of the forehead.

The objective is to get the gingerbread man cookie into your mouth using only your facial muscles. Ready, get set, go!
