- Casserole Party - Arrange for a casserole party .
 Have an
assigned "pot luck" and ask each guest to bring one dish of a dinner. Or you
can use a single food theme such as soup, chili, spaghetti, stew, pizza,
quiche, or make-your-own sandwiches. This is undoubtedly, one yummy idea
that can make for a great bash.
- Dessert Party - This one is a foodie's delight too. Freeze the
cookies that you had made in November for a holiday cookie party in
December. Buy a couple of fabulous desserts for an after concert dessert
party. Make cupcakes and invite the kids to decorate their own with
sprinkles and sugars. Cookies can also be exchanged. Cookie baskets can be
distributed to teachers, coaches, or others. Arrange a coffee and cake
party, or tea and pastries, or cocoa and cookies for your friends. They will
love it for sure. No two minds about it.
- Santa Party - A hugely popular party idea.
 Decorate your party
with a Santa theme, hire a Santa to distribute gifts, invite neighborhood
children to make Santa crafts or cookies, Arranging a secret Santa party can
work wonders.Or you can show Santa themed family videos. Ask the invitees to
wear red, pass out Santa hats, and have a program of recitations of Santa
poems and stories. The "Fattest Santa" theme can also work wonders for your
X'mas bash. This is a fun theme in which everyone has to get dressed like
Santa Claus and the fattest one gets to steal the limelight! You can stuff
yourself with pillows, cushions, balloons and anything you can find. You
need to buy an extra large Santa suit for yourself. Of course, you can burst
those balloons later!
- Snow Party - Arrange a snow party. Sent invitations with snowman
printed on it.
 Decorate the house with snowflakes from the ceiling. Make a
real snowman outside to greet the guests. Give each of your friend a carrot
with their names on it to pin the carrot on the snowman. Make individual
snowman cakes for all your pals and put out an array of decorations such as
m and m's for eyes and buttons, sprinkles, coconut for snow etc. Stuff the
gift bags with snowflake themed gadgets. You can also include a package of"
Snowman Soup" which is hot cocoa, heresy kisses, marsh mallows and a
peppermint stick.
-
 Reindeer Party - A greatly funny party idea. Ask everyone to get
reindeer horns for your theme party. Keep some craft materials at your home
for kids who would want to make them on their own. You can also get a red
nose by making a slit in a ping-pong ball and painting it red. Keep everyone
jolly by asking them to act like a reindeer and organize a quiz that
involves questions regarding Christmas and reindeers.
- Christmas Forest Party - Your friends will simply love this one.
Buy small artificial Christmas tree for each child along with tinsel bows
and ornaments to decorate each one of them. Set up a gazebo outdoors, and
set up the "forest" under this. Decorate a big Christmas tree at the back of
the forest and set up all small trees on the "snow" you can buy for
Christmas, in rows, with nametags on each tree. Ask each of your friend to
go into the "forest" and find the tree labeled with their name and then
decorate it with the articles that they are provided with. A snowball fight
will increase the enjoyment twofold.
- Chocolate Party - Hire a chocolate chef.
 Give each of your friend
a cup of melted chocolate with cookies, pretzels, fruit and a lot of fun
stuff to dip and ask the chef to involve your friends along with him in
chocolate making. Each of your friend should have a definite work area with waxpaper to dry its creations. After they finish, give each of your friend a
box with their names written on it and stuff it with all the chocolates they
have made. You can adopt the Hershey kiss theme for the party. Make the
invitations on computer with a chef hat and children mixing a vat of
chocolate. Use white vinyl table cloths (from party stores) and decorate
them with big Hershey kisses. Cut sheets of aluminum foil and tape the word
kisses at the top of each one and cut them out like long labels on the
chocolate kisses. Since this was a cooking kind of a party, the children are
bound to get messy, its wise to buy T-shirts for each with a kiss printed on
them along with the name of each one. Before the party gets over, take a
group snap. Copy this image and use them as thank.
-
 Christmas Carnival Theme- A grand and great idea that can liven
up any party. Set up your home like a carnival. Adorn all of your party zone
with some splendid lighting. Set up tables with craft items for kids so that
they can come up with interesting items like Rudolph nose for everyone,
sprigs of holly, stars and bells. Make stuff that everyone can wear and
participate in the carnival. Organize a parade and visit your neighbors to
greet them. Include everyone in your merriment.
- Ornament Party - It is a very easy party to put together and lots
of your friends can be invited. It needs to be mentioned in the invitation
that its going to be an ornament party.
 The instruction can be included as
part of a poem or indicated at the bottom of the invitation "Ornaments
Preferred!". Remember! Each of your friend must bring an ornament along with
him or her. Have a Santa Claus come over to your place and each child gets
an opportunity to sit on his lap and reveal to Santa what they want for
Christmas. Santa gives each child a bag that includes an ornament and some
other goodies. So, take a snap of each friend with Santa for them to take
home. Parents can also take pictures of their child with Santa. This party
is actually a no-mess party as ornaments come in a wide variety of price
ranges. Over the years you will actually have accumulated a number of
ornaments that can actually be reused for later Christmas decorations.
- Charitable party - If you prefer none of the above and want to
make your party an excuse for doing some community work, the Charitable
Party idea could do well for you. Invite a group to work in a food kitchen,
collect toys for the needy, deliver food baskets. Explore your creativity by
making things for the homeless like blankets, mittens, toys, etc. Make treat
baskets for the hospital-bound, collect warm clothing like hats, mittens,
coats, etc. Collect and donate canned goods to a food pantry. Help the
inmates of retirement homes and homeless shelters set up a tree. Shovel
snow, put up holiday lights, or decorate trees for the elderly.
