Sticky
Do you know the game called Sticky? It’s neither digital nor a board game, and at first glance you might even wonder, “Is this really a game?” It’s one of those hidden gems you can find online on Amazon or at electronics retailers.
The rules are simple, so it’s perfect as a little entertainment at a Christmas party.
It’s incredibly straightforward: a ring with lots of sticks inserted, and you take turns pulling them out.
It’s sure to be more fun than you’d expect.
This might just be the origin of the saying, “The simpler it is, the more fun it is!”
Nanjamonja
If you’re hosting a Christmas party with lots of kids, the card game “Nanjamonja” is highly recommended.
It’s a game where you basically have to speak out loud, so it’s sure to liven up the room.
You might also be amazed by the kids’ imagination.
The cards feature mysterious creatures that could be seen as ghosts or monsters.
The person who flips a card gives that creature a name.
When the same card appears again, you have to say that name, so it also has a bit of a memory-game vibe like Concentration with playing cards.
The Game of Life
How about playing The Game of Life, a classic board game released in the U.S.
in 1960 and in Japan since 1968, that’s just as exciting now as it was back then? Since 1990, the game has been updated annually to fit the times, and versions themed on popular anime like Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and Jujutsu Kaisen have also been released.
You get a job, earn a salary, get married, and so on—advancing according to the roulette spins while experiencing life events along the way.
It might even help kids learn about money!
Jenga
Jenga is a game that kids and adults alike can enjoy, where you keep stacking the blocks you’ve pulled out on top of the tower.
A giant version even appeared on variety shows and drew a lot of attention! As the tower grows taller, the balance gets worse and worse, which makes your heart race as you try not to topple it—perfect for building excitement.
Players take turns removing one block at a time and placing it on top, and the person who makes the tower collapse loses.
Because the tower’s balance changes as it builds up, spots that were hard to remove at first can become easier later on.
It’s a thrilling, nerve‑wracking game that’s perfect for Christmas.
cracker
Party poppers have long been a classic party item.
The old cone-shaped ones you pull a string to pop are a thing of the past! These days, they come in all kinds of sizes and shapes.
It’s fun to choose designs that match the theme of your party—like champagne bottles, bundles of cash, or ones printed with “HAPPY BIRTHDAY.” Some are as big as a bazooka, braced on your shoulder and operated with both hands.
There are even types that keep the room tidy by letting you pull a string after popping to reel the contents back in.
Bingo
Bingo is perfect for handing out Christmas presents! It’s a classic party game that’s easy for both kids and adults to enjoy.
If a number that’s called matches one on your card, punch a hole in that spot; when you open a full line—vertical, horizontal, or diagonal—you’ve got Bingo! Once you get Bingo, you can exchange it for a prize.
The sooner you hit Bingo, the better your chances of getting a nicer prize—but that part is all down to luck.
Don’t forget to shout “Bingo!” when you win, and “Reach!” (meaning you’re one away) when you’re just one number short!

glasses straw
When you think of straws, you usually picture the straight ones or the bendy ones that make drinking easier, right? But did you know there’s also something called “glasses straws” shaped like eyeglasses? You use them just like a regular straw—stick one end into your juice and drink—but because they’re shaped like glasses, you can actually wear them on your face like real eyewear! As you sip, the juice travels around your eyes, making these a fun, party-ready pair of novelty glasses.
If you play a game where people guess what juice someone is drinking through the glasses, it gets even more exciting!
