Materials
One chair for each
person and a couch
(sleigh). Four chairs can
be used to replace the
couch if you don’t have
one available. Decorate
the couch (or four chairs)
like “Santa’s Sleigh.”
There should also be one
extra chair.

Game Setup
1. This game requires 10 or
more people to work. Set
up requires that there be
one more chair than
people and the name of
each person playing
written on a piece of
paper. Place the chairs in a
circle and the couch on
one side of the circle.

2. Divide the group into 2
teams that can easily be
identified (e.g. girls against
guys, or those wearing
glasses against those not.) If
you want, distinguish one
group by making them wear
red Santa red hats or some
other means of easy
identification.

Game Play
1. Have everyone sit on the
chairs making sure two of
each team is sitting in the
“sleigh”. Mix up and then
pass out the papers with the
names giving one to each
person.

2. To win the game, a team
must have 4 of their players
sitting in the “sleigh.” This is
accomplished by having the
person on the right of the
empty chair call out a name.
The person with that name
on their piece of paper
moves to the empty chair
and then exchanges the
name paper with the person
that called him/her.

The person to the right of the
new empty chair is the next
person to call a name and
exchange with the person
who will move to the empty
chair.

The game gets confusing
trying to track who has
what name and how to
move the opposite team
off of the “sleigh” and to
get your team mates
there.

Variation
Instead of a “sleigh” label
the couch the stable. Then
inform the team that the
first to get four wisemen to
the stable wins. (There may
have been more than 3
wisemen, although only
three gifts are mentioned in
scripture.)
