Split your group into small teams of 3 – 5 people. Each team will work together to complete the challenges listed below. The first team to successfully complete all of the challenges must run through the finish line first. You can create a festive finish line with Christmas garland between 2 shovels stuck in the snow. You’ll want to assign at least one player (who is not assigned to a team) to be a referee. You’ll need a few supplies for this game. Your local dollar store would be a great place to shop for inexpensive game supplies.
Christmas Relay Game – Challenges: Build a Snowman: Each team can be given a small bucket of supplies to build their own snowman. This bucket could include items such as a scarf, a carrot nose, black coal or rocks, a hat and a measuring tape. Upon the referee ringing the starting bell, teams must work together to build a snowman of a specified height. When they think they are done the challenge, they have to call over the referee to measure the height of the snowman and get approval to move onto the next challenge in the Christmas Relay Game. Snow Angels: Teams must choose 1 person to complete this challenge.
