Think Creatively
Be creative and think some new interesting games. Frame such games which are simple yet exciting and the rules of which are easily comprehensible. Create fun and humorous element in the game, which can be of interest to people of every age. Even if you are planning games for specific age, take care that the spectators are amused as well. You can even make a twist in the traditional games by including some new elements within these games.

Think From The Perspective Of Your Guests
Before deciding on a game, think from your guests' perspective. If you think the game interests you as a guest, then only finalize it. Think about the age of the guests for whom you are designing the game. If it is for small children, keep it as simple as you can. You can introduce some complexities in case of teen and adult games, as this will glue everyone's interest to the game. Plan such games, which can be played by everyone comfortably and whole-heartedly.

Buy Extra Supplies
Always be prepared with some extra supplies. Some unexpected guests may drop in and so keep things ready for them as well. This will allow them to participate in the game and thus not leave them with the left-out feeling. Anyways, you can always save the extras, if not used, for some other purpose. So there is no chance of anything being wasted.

Rules and Regulations
Explain the rules and regulations of the game clearly to your guests before starting the game. Indicate the precautionary measures before hand. For example, some games for kids need adult supervision. Make such things clear to your guests to avoid any trouble during the game.

Perfect timing
It is very important that you choose an appropriate time for games in the party. Games are most enjoyable if they are played at the start of the party before the dinner. It is very important that you choose an appropriate time for games in the party. Don't arrange any game immediately after the dinner as everyone will be too full to participate. There is a suitable time for every game; look out for that time and arrange accordingly. For example, place the icebreaker games at the beginning of the party so that the guests come to know each other through these games. Arrange the games involving activity like "Where are Santa Clothes" etc towards the first part of the party and the mind games like "Christmas charades" at the later part. Give some gap between two games for the people to prepare and get ready. Enjoy the games and make a wonderful Christmas party !
