Christmas is fast approaching and you want to throw a memorable party. What should you do to make this party the one to be at? One approach may be to hold a theme party that celebrates different aspects of Christmas.

One option is to have a foreign country theme party. Pick a foreign country and see how they celebrate the holiday season. Ask guests to dress in the clothing appropriate to the country, season, and chosen time period. Choose a menu that is customary for authenticity. It would be even more exciting to look at your own heritage and do your party around it. Or, perhaps you could choose a Biblical theme party. Let guests arrive dressed as their favorite Bible character. Many games could be played, such as trivia from the Bible. Another idea is a chocolate exchange party. Let guests bring their favorite Christmas delight and enough to exchange some with everyone. If you are charity-minded, you could host a casino party for a large number of people as a fundraiser, or just for fun if you like. A costume party would be exciting for young and old. Choose your favorite Christmas character, then dress the part. Make sure to sing your favorite carols, specifically ones favored by your Christmas character of choice.

Many other themes could be used such as a south of the border party with sombreros and delicious tamales. There are many, many ways to have a Christmas party, it seems the list is endless.
