Spoon Catapult Game:
Do not use plastic cups, they will fall over.
Break out the mugs.
[amazon box=”B07X4ZHMG6,B07VL22CB9″ template=”list”]
- You will need 2 spoons for every catapult. I would use 3 mugs and 3 catapults.
- Set the spoons up with the scoop part facing you, and the stem underneath the other spoon scoop.
- This set up will allow the spoon to (hopefully) make it into the mug. You’ve got 1 minute to them in. Best out of 3?
Shake It Down:
This is fun!
- You will need 2 clean 2 liter bottles, and a package of those vase marbles (or regular marbles if you have a bunch laying around).
- Empty the marbles into one of the bottles, then tape the bottles together at the opening.
- Now the object is to get as many marbles from one bottle to the other in 30 seconds.
- Take turns with your friends and try to beat the best time!
Snowball Race:
This one will get everyone laughing.
- All you need is a bag of cotton balls, a little petroleum jelly, and 2 bowls.
[amazon box=”B07L58WC7D,B07SWJ3QJQ, B01KSSRTW0″ template=”list”]
- Fill one bowl with the cotton balls, the other one is empty.
- Dab a little of the petroleum jelly on your nose, and then when it is your turn, you have 1 minute to get as many cotton balls into the empty bowl using your nose. T
- he cotton balls will stick to the petroleum jelly, but it is not easy to get it off!
The Great Cookie Race:

Your mom better get video of this one!
Bake the cookies ahead of time, you can use those seasonal sugar cookies that are pre-cut and have winter pics on them like a snowman or snowflake.
You ready?
Everyone places a cookie on their forehead and you have 1 minute to get it from your forehead to your mouth without using your hands.
I am giggling just think of watching people do this!
Reindeer Round-up:
This whole process is hilarious to do and watch!
- You will need 2 pairs of panty hose and a package of balloons.
- Break your friends up into 2 teams and choose 1 person for each team to be the reindeer.
- Working as fast as you can to beat the other team, blow up the balloons and fit them into each leg of the panty hose.
- Once you have them filled, be sure there is enough room for your team member to put their antlers on their head!
- The team that does this first, and can keep the antlers on their head wins!
Winter party games are more fun than the old regular party games, because well, you don’t get to play them all the time!
Everyone has played pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey but I bet your friends haven’t played a game where food is supposed to be on their face!
I am sure you have played some other winter party games! Share your ideas with us below in the comments

Those are really adorable! I would love to play these games during a Christmas Party! How nice.
As a food blogger, I simply love to incorporate FOOD into my games. Does that sound bad? I love these ideas and now I am going to see how I can add FOOD into them:) Lol
Maybe I will play a few of those games at Christmas. They sound like a lot of fun for just a few people to a party too.
Sounds like fun games. I will have to pin this in case we plan a party this winter.
These sound like some really good games! I know my daughters will love to do the snowball race! I hope it snows at least one time for them to do that!
Winter party games are always so much fun & exciting & these are some great list of party games that many would love. My kids would love all of them during the upcoming Christmas party.
These are some great ideas for games! Now all I need is for it to start feeling like winter here in Florida. 88 today. BLECH.
These games sound hilarious and like tthey would be so much fun. I would love to see the snowball race in person.
Reindeer roundup sounds like a blast!
I love these ideas. I have to be honest. We’ve actually never played any games. We just eat until we pass out.
Playing these “minute to win it” style would be super fun with my preschooler. Hurrying up and spending energy is his favorite “speed.”
Those all sound so fun! I might try a few on xmas eve!
these all sound so fun. Love the snowball game. Getting the cotton balls to fall off without using your hands would definitely be tricky and fun to watch
Haha these are so clever. I love the snowball race idea! It sounds like it would be a blast!
These all sound like fun party games. I think my friends would enjoy the Snowball Race.
These are fun ideas! I’ll have to remember these for those long winter days!

These all sound so fun. We could use some new games and fun ideas for around here, especially this time of year!
I love that these are unique games that most people haven’t played before. These all sound like a lot of fun.
What fun idea!! I’ll have to bookmark these for the boys.
If we have a party this winter, I am for sure playing some of these. There are some great ideas here!
I’m bookmarking this for sure. We have not gotten enough snow for cabin fever to set in yet but I know it will happen. Happy to have these on hand.
Those all sound like so much fun! I love playing minute to win it type games with my kids. And you’re right, you have to record it.
These sound like great games to play. I am going to pick up some marbles so we can try Shake It Down.
These sound so fun! I love Reindeer-Roundup. I will have to play that with my girls over winter break!
These are definitely fun games for the family, especially when you’re snowed in! Thanks for the fun this winter
These games are new to me. Thanks for sharing. I am more used to board games.
Awesome games! This will be perfect for the upcoming season where almost all family members are present in the home 🙂 Would try these!
