Christmas Party Game: Hershey Kisses

Everyone enjoys Hershey’s Chocolate Kisses at their Christmas party. At my house, the red and green bags are dumped into a bowl that we pick at during the entire party.

Supplies: Bowls, bags of Hershey Kisses. Oversized mittens or gloves, one pair for each team.

Setup: Have two bowls of Hershey’s kisses at the other end of the room.

To play this Christmas Party Game

For this Christmas party game, divide your group into two teams.

Give each team one set of the oversized gloves.

The first person in line runs to the bowl of Hershey kisses. They are to take one and to unwrap the Hershey Kiss while wearing the oversized mittens/gloves and pop the kiss into their mouth (unless they are allergic to chocolate).

They run back, tag the next person in line, and exchange the mittens/gloves and the next person runs forward to get a chocolate kiss.

The winning team of this Christmas party game is the one in which all members have enjoyed a Hershey kiss.

Review: Creative Christmas Party Game Ideas for Youth Groups

I bought my own copy of Creative Youth Ideas Christmas Party Games, and so I’ll be reviewing what it is and what I got.

I’ll review the whole ebook of Christmas Party Games and tell you my thoughts about how it might help you in your Youth Ministry or Young Adult Ministry at your church.

Who is this Christmas Party Game resource for?

Flipping through several of these pages, I am sure that we will be using some of them later this year.

While the Collection of Christmas Party Games is clearly aimed at the church youth group market (youth pastors, middle school leaders, church volunteers), several of these games would be good ice breakers and discussion starters for adults at their Christmas parties.

For example, perhaps your church small groups are planning Christmas party games to help break the conversational ice among potential first time visitors.

Several of these Christmas party game icebreakers would be low key enough for adults to help develop relationships and get the ball going on helping people think about where they want to grow spiritually.

Perhaps you are hosting a Christmas party game night for your neighbor. Several of these party games for Christmas would fit the bill and provide with a way to help bring forth a Christmas conversation that shares Christ.

Why an ebook of Christmas Party Games?

Candy Cane Games for Christmas Parties I had a box of candy canes.

I figured I could play a party game with Christmas candy canes.

I was in an office building, away from my collection of books. Could I find a Christmas party game involving candy canes with my resource books being in another place?

The thought of manually searching for Candy Cane Christmas games through all my books gathered over the years did not appeal to me.

Been there. Done that.

I wanted an ebook format to help me scan through the 200+ ideas for Christmas parties. Open up the book and search for candy canes (I found 8 games right away – no need to open a single book to search for christmas candy cane party games.)

Balloon Pop Christmas Party Game

Ready to play the Christmas Story Balloon Pop Game?

Everyone loves balloons games! Kids have fun popping them, and I’ve seen adults get pleasure out of the such noise.

Not to mention balloons instantly brighten up stale and church fellowship hall.

So why not have as much fun with them as you possibly can at your Christmas Party?

Preparation:

Like most balloon games, you will need to put something inside the balloons before you blow them up.
Write a scene from the Christmas Stories in the gospels on slips of paper and then put the strips inside of balloons.
Blow up the balloons.
Spread the balloons in the floor, or put them in a large box, garbage bag.
Even tape them on the walls as decorations.

To play the Balloon Pop Christmas Party Game

Allow each player or team to select a balloon to burst (using a stick pin or safety pin).
Have them improvise the scene from the Christmas story without telling nor with words.
The other teams need to guess what scene it is.
Then have them read aloud from the Scriptures the Christmas story.

Discuss

Consider one or two of the Bible stories and discuss them with your group. Search ahead of time online for some possible discussion questions to help connect the game to the the persons spiritual life.
