Christmas and New Year words for a guessing game
The words in the holiday pack

Tips for a festive round
Hand the first turn to whoever is holding the remote — or the last slice of cake. Short rounds of 60 seconds keep the table laughing between toasts, and the words are gentle enough for grandparents and teenagers in the same team.
Add a few inside jokes of your own: the relative who always burns the roast, last year’s disastrous gift, the song everyone sings off-key.
How to play with them
Sign in with a free account, open a room, share the link and split into two teams. In the lobby, add this pack with one tap under Word packs and mix in your own words if you like.
One player describes the word on their phone without saying it, their team guesses before the clock runs out, and the team with more points wins.
