Transform your workplace into a winter wonderland with a friendly "Deck the Halls" competition. Divide your employees into teams, each responsible for decorating a designated area of the office.

Create a cozy space in the office or virtually for a holiday movie marathon. Compile a list of classic holiday films and let your team vote on their favorites. Provide popcorn, snacks, and hot cocoa for the ultimate movie-watching experience. Encourage everyone to wear their comfiest holiday pajamas and enjoy the festivities. For virtual teams, choose a streaming platform that allows everyone to watch together and chat during the movie.
Team-building Gingerbread House Challenge:
Shake up your typical team-building activities with a gingerbread house challenge. Supply your teams with gingerbread, icing, and an assortment of candies, and let their creativity run wild. Not only does this activity promote teamwork and problem-solving, but it also adds a delicious and festive touch to the workplace. Judges (or the entire team) can evaluate the gingerbread houses based on creativity, design, and overall holiday spirit.
