Help! Having party tomorrow and need game ideas

bigburd

Hope you all had a great Christmas everyone!

I need ideas on games. I thought last year after leaving hogmanay party early due to small children that it would be a good idea to hold a party at ours this year. I've left everything to the last minute and I really need some party game ideas that suit all ages and are fun. We tried trivial pursuit on Christmas Eve and it was soooooo slow due to the amount playing so I'd like to avoid board games if possible. Thanks in advance. X

here's a few ideas - don't know how many people coming?

beetle drive - can be adapted if there are children playing - prize for funniest/funkiest beetle etc.

cut up old christmas cards in half - spread them around communal areas - find the pairs.

Each person given the name of someone famous and put on their back. Have to find out who they are by asking other partygoers questions only answerable by yes and no

wink murder

scavenger hunt - divide into teams and one person reads out an item from a prepared list and first team to produce it gets point

pictionary - but without board - make a pile of cards for each team. First team to get to to end wins

orange under chin

spelling game - each team given a group of large letters . Master reads out a word. First team to spell in order wins a point.

guess the famous person from a picture

take photos on a digital camera of everyday items in closeup from strange angle and print off

Find out adverts on computer and make into a quiz

anagrams of local places or chocolate bars etc

Hope that helps. Have fun Happy New Year

Thanks very much for these ideas. There will be over 20 people and gawd Knows how many others as Mr Burd has been inviting anyone he meets! Sorry for the double post - I made a spelling mistake, tried to edit it and ended up with one correctly spelt and the original one still there DOH!! I managed to correct the duff one but couldn't work out how to delete it. x
