Perfect for families, friends, or mixed-age groups, each game is easy to set up and comes with a variety of options for play.
Game Descriptions:
1. Find Your 2025 Snake Name In honor of the Year of the Snake, this name game will have everyone creating their own slithery alter-ego. Using a combination of initials, birth months, and fun characteristics associated with snakes, participants will generate unique names. Once everyone has revealed their new identity, players can mingle and share what makes their “snake” unique. This lighthearted activity is a fantastic icebreaker and the perfect way to start the party!
2. Guess the Year: 1924 vs. 2024 How well do you know history? In this trivia game, test your knowledge of how life has changed over the past 100 years. The host will ask a series of questions comparing life in 1924 with life in 2024. Teams or individuals write down their answers and reveal them simultaneously. Topics range from technology and entertainment to fashion and politics. One point is awarded for each correct answer, and the player or team with the most points wins! For added fun, print out a question form for each participant to fill out and compare their answers at the end.
3. Top Baby Names of 2024 Can you guess the most popular baby names from last year? Players will write down their top 10 predictions for both boy and girl names. See who can match the most names to the official top 10 list of 2024. This game is not only entertaining but also reveals fascinating trends in baby names. Who knows? It might even spark a few “what-if” conversations about name choices! Give bonus points for guessing names that are both unique and historically accurate.
4. Timeline of Events: 2024 in Review How well do you remember the major events of 2024? In this hands-on game, each player or team is given poster paper, scissors, and glue. They’ll have 15-20 minutes to label their poster paper with each month of the year, cut out a list of events, and place two events next to the correct month in which they occurred. Participants will then grade their own work as the answers are read aloud. The team with the most events correctly placed wins the game. This is a great way to reflect on the past year and relive some of its most memorable moments!
5. Pop the Bubbly! This game adds an element of suspense and surprise to your New Year’s Eve celebration! Prepare a large cardboard bottle filled with numbered balloons and choose one of four options for popping the balloons. This includes 16 New Years trivia questions as one option. With these exciting games, your New Year’s Eve party will be the talk of the town! Whether you’re reminiscing about the past, competing for the top score, or popping balloons to reveal hidden surprises, this game pack has something for everyone to enjoy. Here’s to a fun-filled and fabulous 2025!
