Best Christmas Party Games (lemmy.ml)

Hey all,

Every Christmas Eve, my family hosts the dinner and events. For years my Mother has come up with some simple games to keep everyone entertained during the middle-later portion of the night.

She doesn't like anything too complicated. I was wondering if anyone has any simple party games which are fun with extended family around the holidays.

Thanks.

My mom does this game where we have a bunch of random (and generally cheap crap) gifts and a some dice. We roll the dice and have to trade, steal, open or leave with the gift. The kids seem to enjoy it and we generally have a good time. The key is to have a decent gift and something crazy that is like 'where did you get this.' we recently introduced this to a friend group... There's not a legendary homemade necklace that looks like someone named groodle made it 2k years ago.
