Xmas Girl's weekend games..?
Every year the women in my family (about 20 of us) get together for a shopping weekend before Christmas. It is a BIG deal. We wait all year for it. Saturday night, we always have three games, that produce a winner each. The winners get to choose from one of three prizes. The prizes are really big usually, my aunts or my grandma will spend all year making them (like a hand-made christmas stocking, or an small christmas tree that is already fully decorated). It gets cut-throat and super competitive.
So.. I need help coming up with some new games. The games have to appeal to a range of ages (85-20). Can't involve too much screaming, or action, as grandma can't run, and is as cut-throat as the rest of us. The game has to produce a clear winner, and cannot be too complicated. Here are games we've played in the past:
Pin-the-nose on rudolph.
Bunco
Christmas Bingo
Pitch the pennies
Guess-how-many M&M's in the jar
Bean-bag throw
Washers
Spoons (this was a bad idea)
Christmas Trivia
Poker
Please help! Any ideas??
Re: Xmas Girl's weekend games..?
Wow, what a large group of ladies! Unfortunately I can't think of any games that would be of assistance to you but I have to ask....what is "Pitch the pennies?" Best wishes with your party planning - it's very admirable
