Hey all,

Every Christmas Eve, my family hosts the dinner and events. For years my Mother has come up with some simple games to keep everyone entertained during the middle-later portion of the night.

She doesn't like anything too complicated. I was wondering if anyone has any simple party games which are fun with extended family around the holidays.

Thanks.

This board game is great. It's a really fun twist on a trick taking game. You give the person next to you categories and they rank things from 1-6 and then you give them back and play the trick taking game. Its fun because you get to learn more about people whilst also messing about with questions like 'do I think comic book guy from the Simpsons is a higher number for dad than a spatular is for mum's favourite kitchen utensil..... Hmmm...
