Easy and fun! Paper Cup Race
https://www.tiktok.com/@houkagoday_yawara/video/7498206932671532295Here’s a fun paper cup race you can make with everyday materials.
Get some paper cups, raffia tape (plastic ribbon), and vinyl tape ready.
Poke holes in the paper cups, thread the raffia tape through, and tie a single knot to assemble it.
It might be nice to draw faces on the cups with a felt-tip pen, too.
Once it’s finished, place a ball on the cup, pull the string, and start the race.
Move slowly and carefully so the ball doesn’t fall off.
Try timing your runs or competing to see who can reach the finish line the fastest and have fun!
Earphone Loud Telephone Game

Let me introduce a game that’s perfect for a Christmas party: the “Loud Earphone Telephone Game.” In this game, everyone wears earphones and passes along a single sentence.
Make sure the volume on the earphones is fairly high.
Each person guesses the sentence by reading the previous player’s lips and then passes along what they think they heard.
Sentences with lots of similar words make it seem correct at first, but often end up unexpectedly different by the end—that’s what makes it so exciting.
It’s fun for both kids and adults, so bring it out when you have a big group and get the party going!
Gorilla Game

Here’s a fun game to get kids excited for Christmas! The “Gorilla Game” is great for students from 1st to 6th grade.
It’s easy to play! Choose one child from the group to be the responder.
No matter what question they’re asked, they must answer “gorilla.” For example, if someone asks, “What’s your name?” they answer, “Gorilla.” Depending on the questions, it’s sure to get everyone laughing.
It’s best to pick an energetic child to help out.
Keep the pace brisk, but don’t let it drag on too long—wrap it up at the right moment so the kids don’t lose interest.
Number guessing game

When it comes to Christmas, fun activities are a must! For anyone who struggles to come up with a new game every year, here’s one to try.
The “Number Guessing Game” doesn’t require any props and can be enjoyed by both adults and kids.
The rules are very simple.
One by one, each person says a number they like from within the range of the number of people present.
On a cue like “Ready, set, go,” everyone says their number and either stands or sits.
Whoever’s spoken number matches the number of people standing wins! You can also play with different rules, like losing if the numbers match, or having one person drop out each time the numbers match.
It’s something you can play on the spot whenever you gather, so give it a try and have fun!
Hit the Center Game

Let’s play a ‘Middle Guessing Game,’ where everyone answers a question and the person who gives the most average answer wins! For example, you might ask, ‘If there were a potion that could make you invisible, how much would you pay for it?’ The person who names the price that’s neither too high nor too low—closest to the middle—wins.
You can even make it a points-based game.
Let’s prepare lots of questions in advance!
