Fun Indoor Games for Groups
Its that time of the year when your cousins are coming down to spend the vacations. It would be snowing or raining outside, so obviously going out ain't an option. No problem! Don't worry, there are fun indoor party games a dime a dozen. Beat the weather with these fabulous games at any social gathering. So get set and get ready with a frenzy to win exciting prizes.

Sock Wars
Forget the loony Star Wars. Get ready for the wild and incredible Sock Wars! Everyone should get 3 pairs of socks with their names clearly mentioned on them. Divide the room in half with a rope. Make teams and divide them on either sides. Roll up the socks in baseball shapes and on the count of three begin throwing the socks at the opposing team. Have a 45 seconds round, which will make them move faster. While on the move, throw in three beach balls which will have double the points. At the end of the first round, the team with minimum socks and maximum beach balls will be declared as the winner! Compliment the winner with a beach hat!

Bob the Builder
A fun way for team building, Bob the Builder game is far more interesting than the cartoon. This 15-minute game is a great hit among kids. To play the game you will need 50 paper sheets (white), 10 construction sheets, 30 odd toothpicks, scotch tape, 3 newspaper pages and 4 wire coat hangers. When the whistle blows GO each team will have to build a structure which is a foot tall (or less). The motive is to get the dormant teen minds thinking. Structures like, shoe racks, tables, desks are easily possible. Once the time's up, the structure that stands the tallest wins a helmet like Mr. Bob the Builder!

Toe Jam
A goofy, mushy and a li'l slimy game, Toe Jam is a sweet treat! It can be played on the carpet, hard floor or even on the lawn. Make some jell-O and while setting it, throw in some pennies, Hot Wheels cars, earrings and dimes. Blow the whistle and let the teams to use their toes to pull the tubs of jell-Os. The team which get maximum items obviously wins the fortune!

Truth or Dare
This is for the adults. Take an empty bottle and make a circle around it. Spin the bottle and let it stop on it's own. The person, towards whom the bottle will point will be given an option of 'Truth' or 'Dare'. If the person opts for truth, ask a question which will have to be answered truthfully!! On the other hand, if its a dare, then imagination is your only limit!

To make all your guests comfortable and at ease try some 'ice-breakers'. Indoor group games help in building bonds with family members or guests. To make them fun and interesting, see to it that there is wholehearted participation by everybody present. Lure people with innovative gifts and prizes and have a field day playing fun indoor group games!
