How to Play Stuff the Santa

Stuff the Santa is an active and fun game that works great for any Christmas party. Adults and children alike will enjoy this game and have plenty of laughs. There is little preparation for this game and most of the supplies will be in your closet.

Instructions

1. Gather two pairs of Santa's pajamas for costumes. Men's pajamas work great. Use a huge pair of pajama bottoms and a huge shirt. A Santa hat tops the costume off.

2. Blow up 100 medium sized balloons. Use more if small balloons are used and less if large.

3. Divide the party into two teams. Designate a "Santa" from each group.

4. Have the Santa put on the costume. Form a line for each team with Santa at the beginning.

5. Give a time limit. Set a timer for 60 seconds. This is sufficient for most groups, but for small children give 90 seconds.

6. Have each person in line take turns stuffing Santa's pajamas with balloons. Have each person go to the end of the line. Continue stuffing and rotating through the line until the timer dings.

7. Take the balloons out of Santa's pajamas. Count how many balloons each team stuffed. The team with the most balloons in Santa's pajamas wins.

Tips & Warnings

• Count the balloons as Santa takes them out of the pajamas.

• Play the game more than one time for a serious competition between teams.

• Use a bicycle pump to blow up the balloons.

• Balloons can pose a choking hazard. Keep them away from the face.
