Then they are explained the rules: One of the players moves away and turns his/her back to all the rest players. In this time one of players is given a candy. But the player mustn't eat it, he/she just puts it in the mouth. Then all the players including the player with the candy, begin to pronounce one and the same word "myrshim" (in Kazakh it means "to chew"). The task of the 1st player (the player who stands with his back to all the rest players) is to guess who of the players has a candy in his/her mouth. If the player guesses he receives the prize and chooses the leader, if he doesn't guess all the players say to him "oh-oh-oh!" So the game begins. The leader moves away, turns his back to all the rest players and the instructor gives a wrapped up candy to one of the players. When the player unwraps the candy and puts it into the mouth the game begins: all the players begin to say "myrshim, myrshim, myrshim" and the instructor calls out the leader.

Write numbers from 1-??, depending on the number of gifts, on small pieces of paper. Do not number the gifts. Fold papers and place them in a hat or some other container. Each person randomly picks a paper (number) from the hat. Start with the person holding number 1. He/she picks a gift and opens it. Number two can either pick a gift from the pile or take the gift from number one. Number one then chooses a wrapped gift from the pile and opens it. Number three can either take a gift from numbers 1 or 2 or pick one from the pile to open. . There is no limit on the number of gifts one person can open if others continue to take the gift they have opened. Each gift can only change hands three times through out the game. The person with the gift on the third exchange keeps it. Each person ends up with only one gift. You may end up with the same gift you brought. You may also play this game without opening the gifts till the end wheneveryone has a gift in hand and all the exchanging is over. It's not only funny to see people vie for a gift when they don't even know what is actually in the package but also when the gift is opened.

Christmas tree decorating party games lie the Santa Hat Game help bring festive fun to a Christmas Theme Party. It is also fun and festive at holiday gatherings to wear Santa hats. You need everyone to be wearing a hat, so either use the ever popular Santa hats, or otherwise give everyone a normal party hat. The game is based on observation. The objective is NOT to be the last person left with a hat on. At the start announce the simple objective; the only rule is that no one can take their hat off until you have. Let another game or conversation take place, and as time goes by, people will take their attention off you, and even forget the game is happening. Eventually remove your hat and watch as people cotton on. Gradually the hats will come off, amidst sniggers and smirks. Some unsuspecting person (who’s probably busy boring everyone with a hopeless story) will be last to notice, and much to every ones’ mirth, this person is the loser. Serve up an appropriate forfeit, get the hats back on and give the loser the chance to start the next game. For even more Christmas Fun have plenty of Christmas treats available for your guests.

Stocking Stuffer game prizes are fun to give out to everyone who participates in the Christmas Fun at a Christmas Theme Party. Pin The Nose on the Reindeer is a great game to play and give out stocking stuffer game prizes. Create a picture of a reindeer's head. You can draw it or use construction paper, make sure you draw an outline for the nose, but don't complete it. You'll want the picture to go on a wall or flat surface. You'll also need to make noses to be placed on the picture. Red or black noses work great, or use different colors for each child so you can tell who placed which one where or just number the noses. To play: Each child will be given a nose, you can use tape on one side of the nose so it sticks to the board. Blindfold the one who's turn it is and spin them around 3-5 times, (so there a little dizzy) now point them in the direction of the reindeer (2-3 feet in front of it) and tell them to walk forward and place the nose on the reindeer. The one closest to the actual reindeer noses wins!
