Now what you have to do is to take out the chits one by one and mime. Others will have to guess the name of the movie or the song that you are miming about. The first one to guess it correct would take out the next chit and mime. There should be a time limit of about two minutes. No sounds are allowed at all, failing which can make you out.

Though these games need some preparations, but the joy it gives is really magnificent. You have to wrap a small Christmas Gift in lots of boxes one over one. Then pick a number and let all the people roll the dice one after one. The very first person to roll the selected number will start to open the boxes with mittens put on.
