I am in charge of the games station for my daughter's kindergarten class holiday party. They will be in small groups moving from station to station. So, I will have about seven kids at a time for about 15 mintues. Any ideas that have worked for you?? Thanks for the help!

Could you use a radio and do like a freeze dance kind of game?
I taught kindergarten and did station games at our parties too! We some games we played were twister. Some moms got creative and make holiday boards with snowman and etc... on it. Also, the game where you race to put on clothes. Also, Bingo!
Hi,
How about bingo or a memory game. Do children in kindergarten now their addition (1+1= up through maybe 15 or 20)
My girls are in high school and college so not sure what all the children are being taught in the kindergarten grade.

Red Light/Green Light
Mother May I?
Music on and dance/music off and freeze game
These are what I would probably go with. You can probably amend these games to be more "wintery" - maybe incorporate Rudolph the red nosed reindeer, play christmas music, etc.
Could also do the "make your own snowman" thing with construction paper cut-outs and you glue cotton balls onto them. Only hitch there is that they need to set them aside to dry and remember to pick them up after the party's over.
We wound up playing charades and a memory game. The kids liked both games! It was worked out well to play more “calm” type games!!
