Santa Claus is Coming to Town

Give your guests a piece of blank paper. Have them put it on top of their head and use their catalog as a “desk.”  Then tell them to do the following things on the paper to the best of their ability.  The one with the most points at the end is the winner.  Draw a circle (the body). Draw a smaller circle (the head). Draw his left leg. Draw his right arm. Draw his nose on the head. Draw his boot on the left leg. Draw his right leg. Draw his eyes. Draw the sack beside Santa. Draw his beard. Draw his boot on the right leg. Draw the left arm. Draw a present in the sack. Draw gloves on his hands. Draw a hat on his head. (Don’t just read it, say things like "Santa's left foot is cold - give him a boot...he needs a present to give - put one in the sack, etc.)

Points:

10 for legs in right place; 15 for nose on the head; 20 for boots on the legs; 25 for eyes on head; 30 for the sack;
