Exciting! Recreational Activities to Enjoy at a Christmas Party

Cap Tree Challenge

[Christmas Activity] Cap Tree Challenge! Use chopsticks to stack bottle caps within the time limit! Recreation for elder care and for children.

The Cap Tree Challenge is a game where you stack plastic bottle caps.

It’s a recreation themed around a tall, growing tree, making it perfect for Christmas.

First, draw a face on a round piece of paper and stick it onto a cap.

Then cut layered origami to the size of the cap and wrap it around the outside.

Once you’ve made the star to place on top of the tree, you’re done.

Try competing to see how many caps you can stack within the time limit.

Adding red and green decorations will make it feel even more Christmassy.

A present from Santa

This is a game where you become Santa and work together as a team to deliver presents to houses.

Prepare about four paper cups as the presents and two long pieces of raffia (Suzuran) tape.

Thread a rubber band through so that it connects the two tapes, and you’re ready to go.

Form teams of four, and have each person hold the end of one tape.

By adjusting your strength together, pull the tapes to open the rubber band, attach it to a present (paper cup), and carry it to the house.

Time each team, and the team that delivers all the presents the fastest wins.

Work together and deliver those presents!

Curling game in a tree

[Christmas Activity] Curling Game! Easy to make once and use forever! A game you can play even during the COVID-19 pandemic! (Elderly care activity / Kids activity)

Digital games and watching videos are fun, but it’s also great to get lively with a big group, right? That’s why we’d like to introduce “Christmas Tree Curling.” It’s a game everyone can play, from kids to seniors.

It’s easy to make, too.

Create a flat Christmas tree out of colored paper, divide it into five sections, and write a score for each area.

Make some stones to use in place of curling stones, and you’re done in no time.

If you have a large group, we recommend making a bigger version on a large table.

Seal-eating contest

Christmas Party Game 1

It’s a “sticker-eating contest,” a twist on the classic bread-eating race from sports festivals! Grab the hanging stickers using only your mouth—no hands allowed.

As long as it can be taken with your mouth, you can hang anything you like, even small gifts! It’s a game with lots of room for creative variations, so if you’re planning activities for Christmas, give this one a try.

It really gets the crowd going!

balanced tree

[Ages 3–5] The Long-Awaited Christmas☆

In the Balance Tree game, children develop the ability to think and play while watching their friends.

You can even make the game yourself, so why not try creating it as December approaches? All you need are a paper plate, a toilet paper roll, pipe cleaners, and plastic bottle caps.

Punch holes around the edge of the paper plate.

Cut the pipe cleaners short and tape the tips so they aren’t sharp.

Glue two bottle caps together and attach them to the pipe cleaners.

When playing, stack the paper plates and toilet paper rolls alternately, and hang the pipe cleaners from the holes.

Be careful not to upset the balance and make it fall.

It’s a fun way to play with focus!

When, where, who did what? Game

When? Where? Who? Did what? Gaaame!!! We can’t stop until we get a hilarious answer! himawari-CH

A long-popular game is this “When, Where, Who, Did What?” game.

You form a team of four, and each person writes down, in turn, when, where, with whom, and what someone did on a piece of paper, then announces it in order.

Since you don’t know what the person next to you has written, you leave it to chance and enjoy the funny combinations that come out.

If you have fewer people, you can make several cards for “when,” “where,” “who,” and “what,” and draw them at random instead.

Santa fell down

Everyday Play: Did Santa Fall Down? Red Light, Green Light Christmas Ver. — Maa-chan [5 years old] & Oo-chan [3 years old]

The rules are the same as the usual “Daruma-san ga koronda,” but instead of the tagger saying “Daruma-san ga koronda,” you say “Santa-san koronda” and play.

If someone in the group is dressed as Santa, it’ll probably get everyone excited.

An arrangement where everyone protects Santa, who brings presents, could be fun too.

Kids who manage to tag the “it” might be thrilled to get a small gift.

And if everyone is in costume, you could change the phrase to match the costumes as well.
