How To Play
Print as many copies of the Christmas Carol game as you need. Hand out the copies along with a fun Christmas theme pencil and a clipboard to bear down on.
Assign teams or play one on one. That is up to you.
Select the amount of time you are willing to allow for the guessing to be completed. Set the timer and shout GO. About five minutes is plenty of time. You don’t want folks to finish quickly and then stray away from the festivities.
Once time has expired, you can read the correct answers and allow your guest to score themselves based on how many they got correct. The team or person with the most correct answers is the winner.
Tip
I suggest playing Christmas music in the background while the players are working on solving the riddles. It sets a festive mood for your holiday party.

We always played this game as individuals rather than teams and my mother always won. However, if you have a large crowd I recommend assigning teams of 3 to 5 people who can work together.
