Christmas Games for Seniors
Gentle, seated-friendly games with simple rules. Use large print and good lighting.
1. Finish the Phrase
Players: any Supplies: host's list
Read the start of a familiar seasonal saying and let the group call out the ending. Use original sayings or common phrases, not song lyrics.
2. Christmas Memory Share
Players: any Supplies: none
Each person shares a favourite holiday memory: a meal, a gift, a place.
3. Large-Print Holiday Bingo
Players: any Supplies: bingo cards with big pictures or words
Use simple festive words in big type. Call them slowly and repeat each one.
4. Name That Object
Players: any Supplies: a bag with seasonal items
Pass round a bag; each person feels an item without looking and guesses.
5. Seated Ornament Pass
Players: any Supplies: a soft ornament or ball
Pass while someone plays a short tune; whoever holds it when it stops answers an easy holiday question.
