Go for an all-age Christmas party

All over the world, people celebrate Christmas Eve by gathering together as a family. Whether people are giving presents or going to a distant city, this is a time of year for families to come together in a single spot.

You may think it’s challenging to orchestrate an event that entertains children and grownups at the same time, but it’s important to think of ideas for Christmas parties that ensure everyone has a good time.

Top 5-holiday party ideas for families

To create a Christmas party for the whole family, a wide range of ages will need to be brought together with fun Christmas party games and a festive atmosphere.

Here are some things that everyone at your party will love.

1. Singing Christmas songs

A great thing about Christmas Carols is that people of any age can enjoy them. If you use a karaoke machine with plenty of festive tracks, you will create a jolly holiday event.

You can begin growing a catalog of tunes and double-check you have included some songs that work for young and some for older family members.

Make prizes for the best singers, and you can even let everyone vote for their favorite caroler. You can end the night with a nice meal and have everyone sing together.

2. Sled together

Nothing is more joyous than being outside with your loved ones enjoying the powdery snow. If it snows, just bring out some sleds and make an event of it!

You can do something casual or even create a race with the whole neighborhood. Enlist your children in making themed invites to your sledding party.

Find a hill that will be a good sledding spot. When the sledding runs are over, give out prizes to first, second, and third place. You could give out tasty Christmas party food as a fun reward. A surprise favorite is a milkshake with peppermints and gingerbread.

3. Witness the wonder of the Polar Express Train

Another fun thing to do at a Christmas party to fan the flame of holiday jollies in children is a trip on the Polar Express Train! This train comes from a classic children’s story about a kid on his way to see Santa, and now countless trains run around the world in this Christmas tradition.

Traveling on one of these Polar Express trains is a unique activity that can delight anyone this time of year. To create the right ambiance, play the movie’s score and drink some coke, don’t forget to end it with a Santa meet and greet!

4. Watch Christmas films

Viewing holiday movies is an all-time classic way to celebrate Christmas. The “Home Alone” series, “The Grinch”, “Jingle All The Way” and “The Christmas Chronicles” are always a great way to amp up that Holiday vibe. If you didn’t have movies like this at your holiday event, you would definitely feel like something was missing.

Putting together a Christmas watch-party for the whole family is simple, invite your guests to add to the atmosphere with costumes and makeup in the likeness of beloved Christmas movie characters.

This is one of the best ideas for the Christmas party outfit’s hands down! Add to the fun with some festive games that all can enjoy.

How about trivia questions about holiday films? People can team up to see who knows the most about these beloved movies.

5. Gingerbread building and decorating

If you don’t have a gingerbread house at your event, then your party can’t be complete! Organize a friendly contest to see who can create the most beautifully decorated house. There’s no need for strict regulations; let everyone be as imaginative as possible.

A good way to culminate the game is to put all the gingerbread creations on display and letting your guests pick a winner. Then everyone can eat all the tasty gingerbread and treats as a family!

Organizing a Christmas party: Hacks

You’ll never run out of new concepts for making your event the best Christmas party ever, year after year. There are so many things to choose from; everyone attending can have a jolly one-of-a-kind time.

Here are some hacks to make your planning go smoothly:

1. Get input from people ahead of time. Everyone has a unique family; everyone will have different preferences. Sometimes active events are better, while other times, a chill tone is more appropriate.
2. Make sure you ask your attendees what they like when you think about what will be the best kind of Christmas party games for adults and children at your event.
3. Be thoughtful about the cost. Holiday gatherings centered around togetherness, and you don’t need to spend a lot. It’s best to think of fun things to do together rather than emptying everyone’s pockets.
4. Using technology to organize your party will save you a lot of hassle, whether you’re throwing a large or tiny party.
