How to play the Christmas Candy Game
Take it in turns to pull out a card from a bowl or Santa hat. There are six types of cards ; Treat, Give, Swap, Challenge, Team Challenge and Trick.
When you draw card, read it and perform the task. If you successfully perform your challenge take a treat of your choice and keep it in front of you. Discard the card.
The Trick card is slightly different - each trick card gives you an action that you have to continue to perform. Keep this card in front of you as you may pass it to another player during the game.
Play continues until either, all the cards are gone, or everyone in the group has had a fixed number of turns - you decide!
