What would a snowman party be without a snowman-building contest. This is a team competition to build the first 4-foot-tall snowman. To play you will need at least two teams, a 4-foot measuring stick, plenty of snow and some traditional items to decorate the snowmen, such as hats, mufflers, carrot noses, charcoal bits for mouth and eyes, buttons etc.
The entire team can roll the snowballs. The winning team will be the first team to create and decorate a snowman of at least 4 feet.
If the weather does not cooperate for your party, try the Snowman Wrap Race. To play this game all guests will need to be paired up in teams of two - each with a builder and a model. For each team you will need a roll of toilet tissue, a length of red crepe paper, black card stock circles for buttons backed with tape.
Give each builder a roll of toilet tissue, a length of red crepe paper and three circles cut out of black card stock and backed with a large loop of tape.
At the Go the builders race to wrap their partner with the entire roll of toilet tissue, finish with a length of red crepe paper for a scarf and the three card stock buttons. The first builder to complete the snowman wins the race for his or her team.
Magazine Scavenger Hunt
For this game you will need at least one magazine for each guest and at least two pairs of scissors. Before the party create two lists of winter items. Include things like snow, ice skates, penguins, winter coats, mittens, hats, ice, snowmen, igloos, earmuffs, scarf, and polar bears.
At the party divide your guests into two teams. Give each team a stack of magazines, a pair of scissors and a list of winter items. Set a timer and let the teams search for the magazines for the items on the list to cut out. Whichever team has found the most items at the end of the time wins.
Freeze Dancing and "Hot" Snowballs
If more games are desired, consider freeze dancing or pass the snowball with Styrofoam balls (a winter version of Hot Potato.
