It is the most beautiful season of the year, Christmas. Families, friends, teams, and loved ones share beautiful moments during this season. New year joins in, and joy is shared across wide and far. Whereas some companies will go on a long break, others enjoy only the exact calendar holiday. But whether you will be part of the extended break group or the other group, you’d want to make Christmas fun.

1. Plan Friendly Competitions
Christmas carol competitions, themed trivia, games and challenges can light up the office to prepare your team for the season. Involve the ideas of the various teams in your organisations to encourage team bonding.
2. Create a Gratitude Wall
A gratitude will allow your team to share what they are thankful for as they head up to the holiday season. Stories of what the year has afforded them throughout the business period. Heartfelt messages on gratitude walls will encourage other team members who are down at heart.
3. Exchange of Gift
Plan an exchange of gift programs to encourage team support and mutual respect. Someone can decide to gift anything appreciable after choosing the one they wish to gift.
4. Christmas Tunes
Play Christmas songs in the hallway at a low volume to make the environment more Christmassy, from old Christmas tunes to the latest Pentatonix Christmas tunes to light up the air.
5. Surprise Treats
What’s Xmas without Santa? Whoever is responsible for garnering energy for the season can offer surprise treats, beverages, or small gifts to brighten everyone’s day. If you don’t mind going the extra mile with the treats, that’s also welcome.
6. Create a Festive Photo Booth
HR or marketing can set up a photo booth with a Christmas tree and lights for team members to take fun pictures for a New Year highlight. Capture memories and moments to create team bonding.
7. Rewards and Recognition Celebration
Recognise individuals or teams for their hard work throughout the year with a special award or celebration event—dinner, dance, a buffet, and classical music.
Enjoy the season with your team members with dinners, themed booths, recognition and awards, or play Christmas tunes to jolly the environment. Gratitude and joy fill this season. As an employer, you can also thrill your employees with surprise treats and exchange gift programs.
We wish you a happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year!
