Christmas Party Games
Name That Christmas Carol Party Game
Hear two seconds of a carol. Name it. Earlier guesses score more.
- Players
- 4–16
- Time
- 20–30 min
- What you need
- A playlist of carols and a speaker
Why it works as a party game
The playlist is already on. Christmas party games should use it.
How to play
- Play two seconds. A team may buzz.
- Wrong buzz locks that team out of the song.
- If nobody has it, play five more seconds, then the chorus.
- Three points for the intro, one for the chorus. First to ten wins.
Hosting tips
- Mix sacred and pop so one tradition does not sweep.
- Skip verses that turn a mixed room quiet in the wrong way.
- A kids' round of only the obvious five.
