INSTRUCTIONS
It doesn’t get much simpler than Christmas Song Charades. Just like charades, there are a few ground rules you’ll need to remind everyone of…
- No Sounds
- No Signs
- No Letters or Numbers
Once you’ve established the basic rules of charades, let each team know that they will have 2. 60 second rounds to guess up 3 songs and a final round to guess as many as possible in 90 seconds.
Each round can have one person acting out the song or you can rotate players after each successful guess or pass. Give them one pass that they can come back to at the end per round. If they pass more than once, one point is deducted.
