Fun Activity Ideas For A Company Christmas Party

Employees work hard all year round. During the year end, it is common to have some fun at the office for a long awaited Christmas party. Playing games is a great way to start a Christmas party and have fun. Check out the fun Christmas party ideas below to keep your co-workers and managers happy.

1) Photo booth

Without a photo booth for people to capture their memories in, any gathering is incomplete. Add lots of interesting props such as: the Santa hats, beards, reindeer accessories or select the appropriate props if your  party has a theme. For example, for a specific costume party, you might need additional masks and other props that are suitable for this period.

2) Secret Santa Gift Exchange

Secret Santa Claus is another office holiday party crowd pleaser. Who does not like to receive a surprise gift? Ask your staff to draw names  and to set the price ranges. Make sure to notify attendees to wrap the gift in unlabelled gift wrapping paper so as not to give the assigned recipient any clues to who bought the gift. Check here for company Christmas gift ideas.

3) Guess Who Is Santa

This hilarious game is definitely going to make some laughs. Secretly ask or randomly draw one of your co-workers to wear Santa Claus attire. During the start of the event, ask the secret Santa Claus to come into the room and give gifts or make some speech.
