One of the best ways to spend this time of year is playing a Holiday Game with your family! Playing together brings you closer and builds memories. Memories that last forever. So, in honor of the season, here is a fun holiday game we like to call Candy Cane Catch, that you and your family can play together over the next few weeks. Have fun and have spend time together!
HOLIDAY GAME- CANDY CANE CATCH
SUPPLIES FOR HOLIDAY GAMES
- Large Candy Canes (5 per player, or you can take turns, and play for time.)
- String
- Chopsticks (One individual chopstick per person)
- Tape (if you want)
HOW TO SET UP THIS HOLIDAY GAME
- Take a single chopstick and cut a piece of string about 15 inches long.
- Tie one end of the string to the end of the chopstick. (If you have trouble getting it to stay, tie it on and then wrap it with a piece of tape.)
- Tie the other end of the string to the end of the long part of the candy cane so the hook hangs down like a fishing hook.
- YOU WILL NEED ONE OF THESE “FISHING POLES” FOR EACH PLAYER. So make a bunch.
- Next, set up the stations for each player. You will need to take 4 candy canes and lay them flat on the table with the “hook” just hanging over the edge of the table.
- Once your stations are set up it is time to play.
HOW TO PLAY THIS HOLIDAY GAME
- Each person takes the end of the chopstick without the candy cane and puts it in their mouth.
- Without using their hands, you have to use the chopstick candy cane fishing rod and catch the other 4 candy canes that are hanging over the table.
- The first person to catch all 4 candy canes, on their candy cane hook, together, WINS!

This sounds like so much fun. I am going to get my family to do this today, when they get bored!
