Any adult Xmas party can be entertaining if they have jokes and Xmas games. Have an old fashion scavenger hunt with a Xmas twist to it. Make a list of all Xmas items, about ten that your guests should find. Give them a time limit and make sure that the items are actually available somewhere within a few miles of the party area. You may want to put some of the items out around the neighborhood yourself. Enlist the aid of neighbors to put a few things on their porch or in their driveways. Divide the guests into teams of two or three people. Two couples per team works well. Give prizes for the first three teams to find everything on the list and small party favors to the rest. When the teams return have refreshments waiting and let everyone tell about the experiences, they had finding the items.
Name that Christmas Carol is another perfect jokes and Xmas game for adults. Let the guests banter back and forth, as to how long (in seconds) it will take them to name a Xmas carol. Once someone gives such a low estimate that everyone else says, " Go ahead and name that carol." Play the carol on the CD for the number of second the player predicted. When they name it they win the Christmas game. If they can't then play the song again from the beginning until someone in the group yells out the title and that person wins. Be sure to have several Xmas music CDs and party favors on hand.
Among the most fun jokes and Xmas games for adults are drawing games with a Xmas theme. Have a pencil and paper ready. Have titles of Christmas movies, carols, well know stories and common Xmas items written out on slips of paper that are in a bowl or box. Divide into two or more teams and decide on a time limit for each team's turn. Have the first person from one team draw a title from the box and then without saying a word start to draw on the paper. They show the paper to everyone but only the people on their team can guess what it is. They team continues to play by drawing and showing the paper until time runs out or someone gets the right answer. Then the next team takes its turn. Whoever gets the most titles correct wins.
Another activity to try when you are looking for jokes and Xmas games for adults is a trivia game. People of all ages love Xmas trivia and are fascinated by it. Gather trivia about Xmas tradition, movies, books, TV shows, food and anything else that's related to Xmas. If you choose to you can give party favors for the correct answers or just give out one or two larger favors for the team with the most correct answers.
