Materials
A red ball (Rudolph’s nose)
that is easily thrown, but
made out of a soft material
similar to a nerf ball or other
material that would not hurt a
person who was hit by it.

Game Preparation
1. Divide the group into equal
teams made up of five or
more youth
2. Choose one team to go
first by being “Santa and
his Reindeer”.
3. Reindeer form a line by
holding the waists or the
shoulders of the person in
front of them. They may
not let go. This will leave
only the front person with
his hands free. This person
is designated Rudolph.

4. Only Rudolph is able to
block the red ball
(Rudolph’s nose).
The person at the other
end of the reindeer team is
Santa.
5. All other teams join
together to form a large
circle around Santa. Leave
room for Santa and his
reindeer to move about
inside the circle.

Game Play
1. The idea is for the
people in the circle to try
to hit Santa with
Rudolph’s nose.
2. Once hit, that person
leaves the sleigh team
and sits out until either
time is up or everyone
has been eliminated
from the sleigh.

3. When Santa is eliminated,
the next person in line
becomes Santa. Only
Santa can be eliminated
when hit.
4. The strategy for the
reindeer is to hide or
protect Santa by moving
around and having the
lead person try to block
throws so Santa doesn’t
get hit.

5. Set a time limit (2
minutes?) and count the
number of Reindeer left
in the sleigh team at the
end of the time.
6. Let each team take a turn
at being Santa and his
Reindeer. The winner is
the team who had the
most reindeer attached to
the sleigh.
