I am hosting a cookie exchange and want to have a few games to play. My internet search hasn't been very helpful. Does anyone have any ideas for me? It will be a small party, maybe 6 to 10 ladies.

Here are a few links to get you started:

Here are a few that come to mind (mostly stolen from a baby shower I attended last week).....

I have adapted the games for a cookie theme, but you could really use any theme you wanted.

Put some baking tools (rolling pin, cookie cutter, spatula, etc.) on a tray and cover it with a towel. Give everyone a sheet of paper and a pencil. Remove the towel from the tray and let everyone get a good look at what is on the tray. Give them a certain time limit -- 30 seconds or 1 minute. Then, cover up the tray and have the guests write down what they remember seeing on the tray.

Put some baking ingredients (flour, sugar, chocolate chips, baking soda, baking powder) in small jars or zip loc bags which are numbered. Set them out and give everyone paper and pen to write down what they think is in each one. At the baby shower, we did this with baby food and we were allowed to smell it, but not taste it.

Count out a number of chocolate chips, M&Ms, hard candy, etc. and put them in a jar. Have each guest guess how many items are in the jar. Person closest to the correct amount wins.

Left/Right game -- do a Google search with this subject and you should find several different poems that have a lot of the words 'left' & 'right' in them. Give one person a small wrapped gift and tell them that as you read the poem to pass the gift according to the poem. The person who has the gift when the poem ends it the winner.

Put a Christmas sticker on the bottom of one or two of the plates. When everyone is done eating, ask them to look at the bottom of their plate. Whoever has the sticker is the winner.

Sarah...........mom to Jason & Devin

Pin a different famous lady's name on the back of each guest as they come in (Katie Couric, Martha Stewart, Sandra Day O'Connor) and instruct everyone that they need to find out who they "are" by asking only 'Yes' or 'No' questions...

It is a lot of fun! My family loves this game, and they enjoy it when I chose names for them that are similar to them (my mother has been Angela Lansbury, my sister has been Dorothy Hamil...). When they all figure out who they are, the game is over. You can give a prize to the first one who guessed, and even a small prize to the one who came in last...

give everyone a roll of toilet paper and let them make themselves into snowmen..the best attempt wins!

These are some great ideas!!! I am going to keep these for my next party!

THanks for sharing!

At one cookie exchange I attended, we did a Chinese Gift exchange. That was a lot of fun-the gift was supposed to be under $10, but a few went overboard. That was a blast!

Wow you guys are creative I am going to keep a list of these for my next get together.
