Fanning
Divide your group into two teams and ask each team to form into a circle. Place a pie tin in the middle of each circle. In one circle scatter thirty white tissue hearts, in the other scatter thirty red tissue hearts. Give each player a paper plate. Begin. The team who fans the most hearts into the tin is the winner. (Allow five to ten minutes.)
Ring The Bell
Cut the center from a paper ornament (make it seasonal such as a pumpkin or valentine) and attach a small bell to the center. Hang the ornament from the ceiling. Divide the group into two teams and give each person a chance to ring the bell by throwing a small bean bag. The team that rings the bell the most is the winner.
Nut-Throwing Contest
Put a small bowl inside a large bowl and place the two bowls in a dishpan. Each player then tries to throw three nuts into the small bowl. The player scores five points for each nut that lands in the small bowl, three points for each nut that lands in the large bowl, and one point for each nut that lands in the dishpan.
Cities
Prepare a card for every letter of the alphabet. The leader holds up one card. The first person to call out the name of a city beginning with that letter receives the card. The cards can be held up in any order. At the end of the game, the person with the most cards is the winner.
