In this article, we’ll explore different ideas for effective festive entertainment to create a real Christmas atmosphere in your company. TeamBooking makes it easy to choose the right team building activity to meet your employees’ expectations.
Organize a creative workshop to make decorations
Christmas spirit is all about pretty decorations. Why not organize a creative workshop where your employees can make their own Christmas ornaments? Whether it’s making garlands, baubles or paper stars, this creative activity will put their imagination and manual dexterity to the test. What’s more, it’ll give everyone a chance to share their talents and tips for making beautiful creations.
Offer a Christmas-themed musical blind test
There’s nothing like a musical blind test to liven up an evening and create a bond between colleagues! Prepare a varied playlist of traditional and contemporary Christmas songs. Participants will have to recognize the titles and performers. You can also include music from famous holiday-themed films. It’s a great way for everyone to enjoy themselves as a group, while testing their musical knowledge on the subject.
Offer entertainment by a professional magician
To surprise your staff and add a touch of mystery to your Christmas event, consider calling in a professional magician. Close-up, mentalism or interactive shows, there are a variety of options to impress participants and leave them with a magical experience they won’t soon forget! What’s more, the presence of such an artist will help create a warm, festive atmosphere at your corporate event.
Involve Santa Claus to distribute gifts
Santa ‘s visit to your company is sure to be an unforgettable moment for all employees. Each employee can bring a small gift for one of his or her colleagues, according to a draw made beforehand. Santa will then distribute the gifts to each person, creating a fun and friendly exchange of holiday spirit.
Christmas cookie and pastry-making workshop
Finally, why not invite your employees to get their hands dirty by encouraging them to take part in a workshop to make cookies and other typical Christmas treats? In addition to the gustatory pleasure offered by these delicious creations, the activity will help strengthen team cohesion by encouraging collaboration on the recipes. Here are a few ideas for pastries you can make together:
- Shortbread cookies in the shape of a star or fir tree
- Chocolate truffles
- Gingerbread
- Mendiants
All in all, corporate Christmas activities are an excellent opportunity to strengthen ties with colleagues while celebrating this festive season. TeamBooking makes it quick and easy to find the perfect entertainment for your end-of-year event!
