Favorite party games?

[Holiday Joy]

Waaay behind the 8-ball on finalizing plans for our Care Group's White Elephant gift exchange. It's coming up the Saturday after Thanksgiving this year, way earlier than normal due to schedule conflicts!

I like to play some quick, fun games with this group.
What are some of your favorite group games?
We've done 'What Christmas song is this?" where you give them a list of funny phrases and they have to guess which carol it is, i.e. 'Nocturnal quietude' = 'Silent Night'.

I've combed sites with lists of group party games, but I'd really like to know what you've done that goes over well with a group of about 16 - 24 adults.

We have played charades for titles of Christmas songs or movies - enough eggnog and I am actually good :haha:

another one that is fun is taking a big easel and doing a version of "pictionary" for the holidays :grin:

How about a speed gift wrapping drill? You can have teams of two or solo's and they all get a box OR irregular shaped object and have to gift wrap it bows and all!!! Just an idea!!

This can be done as a relay or one-by-one.

In a large bowl or container fill it with cottonballs (snow). Give each person a blindfold and a wooden spoon.

The person must dig as much snow out as possible, blindfolded in 1 minute.

This game is hilarious to watch. The spoon weighs much more than the cottonballs and you make think you're doing fantastic when you're really not picking up any at all.

What about Pictionary? Divide into two teams and have a time limit on each drawing
