I am looking for unique Christmas party theme ideas: we have a big big turn out had over 200 for our summer BBQ and Christmas we expect the same and they are expecting BIG theme after the success of a circle summer party. Last year we did UGLY JUMPER party so looking for something unique and memorable please x
Hi Bryony, maybe choose a favorite Christmas movie as a theme? White Christmas or Miracle on 34th Street are classics and you can try to recreate a scene for the party? Turn your activities room into Macy's and have a Santa set up like they do in Miracle on 34th Street.
The last two years we have created a 'Santa's cove', like a photo booth for families. We decorate a corner, or room with all things Christmas; lights, tree, presents, reindeer, angels, etc... We ask a resident or family member to play Santa, and provide a Santa suit. Families can then sit with Santa and have their family photo taken. We charge $5 for a photo. This activity grows each year and the residents look forward to this as do the families. We print off the photo's and place them in a nice decorated cardboard photo frame and give to families. This is also a good fundraiser.
A vintage Christmas will go down well. Bring back the simplicity of those days. Get a piano player so you can have carols around the piano like they did in their own homes. Punch bowls for drinks and traditional veg and turkey. You will have to cater for other tastes food wise but if the theme is a vintage Christmas it can involve a lot of talking about what Christmas use to be like before the Sept start in the shops, computers, telephones, TV's and the way it is now. Christmas then was about family and coming together what a lovely memory to leave your guests with.
Golden Carers is AMAZING! We use it every day in one capacity or another. It has assisted to make our jobs easier as well as stepping up our activities! Thank you for all the materials and resources, keep up the GREAT work!
