Games to Play with Family and Friends

White Elephant Gift Exchange

A white elephant gift exchange is a great game and party activity to enjoy with family and friends. It’s also a great game to play if you have a large group of people and need a way to interact with everyone. If you haven’t participated in a white elephant gift exchange, what happens is everyone playing will bring a wrapped gift (it can be a gag gift, something unique or funny, or a practical item). Everyone will place the gifts in the center of the room and draw a number from a bowl. The person with the number one gets the first pick for picking and unwrapping a gift.

Saran Wrap Ball Game

This game is another great one for a big group of people. To play this game you’ll need a package of saran wrap and lots of candy and treats. To make the saran wrap ball you’ll lay out the saran wrap and lay candy on top. Then, start rolling up the saran wrap with the candy getting caught inside. You’ll do this for as long as you’d like.

Holiday “Name That Tune”

This classic game is made even more fun by playing it with holiday music. If holiday music is common in your home and with your family and friends, then this will be a fun and maybe competitive game. It’s a great game to play after eating or when people want to have some down time. Divide up into two teams and whoever guesses the correct song title first, gets a point.
