Minute To Win It Christmas Party - Part 1

Zach and I hosted an Ugly (aka really festive) Christmas Sweater party this year where everyone came ready to play some 60-second Minute to Win It games.


Upon arrival, everyone was given a score card with the location of the games on it. We had to spread the games all throughout the house when we realized almost 30 people were coming!


It was a very casual evening where appetizers and soup were ready for dinner when you wanted to take a break from playing games. 

For the first portion of the night, we had five individual games set up throughout the house - the three 'living room' games were group games. 

The Snowball Toss was located in the office. You can also see the 'photo booth' area behind the sign.


The goal was to throw the marshmallows, one at a time, through the wreath and land at least 10 in the bucket within 60 seconds.



Garrett did it!!


And what happens if you don't have a bucket full of marshmallows to show off? Just look as cute as Caryn by poking your head through the wreath!


The Christmas Nutstacker game was loads of fun too!


The premise of this game was to load your candy cane with the 8 nuts and then stack them on top of each other - one at a time.


In the same room, on the bed, was located 'Do You Hear What I Hear'?


In this challenge, the Christmas tradition of shaking presents to figure out what's inside was turned into a 60-second game. Using the lift, rattle, and listen method, you must arrange 7 gift boxes filled with different quantities of jingle bells in ascending order from 5 bells to 35 bells - and then note your guess of the order on your score card.


The fourth individual game was called 'Christmas Ball' and was located in the other guest bedroom. Zach moved the furniture around so that we could maximize the space.


This game was surprisingly one of the most challenging games of the night. The premise is to fan an ornament using a wrapped gift box into a select area. From what I heard, only a few were able to do it!


And as you can see above, here's our pretty wrapped gift box at the end of the night.


And the last game... oh boy was this one fun. I choose to place 'Oh Christmas Tree' in the dining room for two reasons - 1. I needed another space and 2. If you failed and the cups came crashing down, everyone would know! How thoughtful of me.

It was certainly fun to watch!


And here are some pictures of those who took the challenge!


p.s. heres' the difference between using a flash and not using a flash. In the picture above, Rachel appears to be calmly placing the cups when in reality this is what she really looked like... Go Rachel, Go!


And here's Merlin bringing the cups down for a victory!


The skills - not to mention the outfits - of every person that came were so impressive! We have some competitive friends!

The individual games were really fun and a great start to our party. It allowed everyone to hang out, mingle, and even show off their competitive side. However, the group games (and by group, I mean, they were played in front of everyone) were a big hit. I had picked out and saved three games I thought would be the funniest to watch.

UPDATE: If you're looking for the templates I used for this event, you can access them here.
The fonts used are 'Cambria' and 'Blackjack'. You can download 'Blackjack' for free at dafont.com -- this is one of my favorite fonts!  

xoxo, Callie

    3. Hmm... let's see! You're right -- when you click on the link and 'Preview' the document, they do appear to be jumbled. However, it should correct itself once downloaded (or at least on my computer it did)! Feel free to send me an email and I will respond with correct templates.

    ReplyDelete
  15. How did you do the scoring for these games? How did you ultimately decide the winner?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Before the group games, I had everyone tally up the number of individual games they were able to complete within 60 seconds -- really, so that we would know how close were the scores! That's when I also announced the correct order for the 'Do you hear what I hear?' game. If we had individuals who were really close, we used the group games as a competition (i.e. in 'Jingle Bell Rock', who could get the highest number on their pedometer won). You can certainly use your discretion on scoring -- I just made it up :)

    1. Hmm... I had just picked up prizes that I knew my friends would enjoy. If I recall correctly, one was a $5 or $10 Starbucks gift card (I asked Starbucks for an extra cup and lid, stuck the gift card inside, and tied a bow around it). You could also package up homemade cookies and Christmas goodies -- the guys would love it!

    1. Hi there! Have you seen 'Part 2' of the Minute to Win It Party? If not, review it here: http://zachandcallie.blogspot.com/2011/12/minute-to-win-it-christmas-party-part-2.html .

      When scoring the games, for 'Face the Gingerbread Man', if the individual could accomplish wiggling the cookie into their mouth, they got a 'Win' on the scorecard. It was a pass/fail scoring. For 'Jingle Bell Rock', we had two people go at a time, and whoever jiggled out the most bells, 'won'! However, I did ask each participant to note how many bells they jiggled out so that if there was a tie, we could use that number to help determine the overall winner.

      Hope that helps!! Let me know!

  96. Hi Callie,
    I love your holiday enthusiasm. I am planning a Christmas party for my work staff and would love a copy of your templates for this. If you could, would you mind sending a copy to jennoates@yahoo.com?
    Thanks so much!
    Jennifer

    What did you use to hang your wreath with? This looks like a great game for the grandkids!

    1. Hi Jean! We used fishing line looped around the wreath and used a tack to attach it above the door frame. Have fun!
