To make your Christmas party a thorough success, there is nothing like having plenty of variety in the games. There is no chance then of the boys and girls getting tired. Many of the games included here would be suitable for parties anytime throughout the year. Total Recall

This game is suitable for all ages. After each player is given a piece of paper and a pencil, a tray is brought in with about twenty small articles on it. If it's a Christmas party, the items could be a Christmas bow, a candy cane, a piece of tinsel, etc.

The tray is placed in full view of everyone and left there for one minute, during which time no one is allowed to write anything down but must simply look at the contents of the tray.

At the end of the viewing time, the try is carried away and the players must write down as many of the articles as they can remember. Only a certain amount of time is allowed for this and whoever remembers the most articles wins the game.
