PLAN THE LAYOUT
Create a comfortable, functional, and inviting space for your game night. Arrange a large table or clear floor space where everyone can gather around comfortably. Provide plenty of seating, cushions, and blankets to keep everyone cozy. Also, ensure there’s enough lighting to see game boards and cards clearly. If you plan to host a dinner first, keep the gaming supplies readily available to set up after the meal. Make sure you have the proper amount of game pieces, pens, pads, and other supplies. Also, plan for scorekeeping, whether that will take place on a dry-erase board, chalkboard, tablet, or other means. Remember to consider the kids if they’ll be playing games of their own. Give them their own table or blanket on the floor and provide a basket of related supplies.
PREPARE SNACKS AND DRINKS
No game night is complete without delicious snacks and drinks! Prepare a variety of easy-to-eat snacks like popcorn, pretzels, chips, and dip. For a healthier option, include a veggie platter, fruit slices, or cheese and crackers. You could also prepare themed snacks to match your game night theme, like cookies shaped like dice or board game pieces. You could pipe trivia categories onto cupcakes or disperse strips of paper with trivia questions around the food table. Similarly, edible markers can turn rectangular sandwiches into cards and cubes of white cheese into dice. For drinks, offer a mix of options such as soda, juice, water, and perhaps hot chocolate or tea for a cozy touch. Make sure snacks and drinks are accessible throughout the night to keep everyone fueled and happy. You can also include wintery alcoholic options such as mulled wine, old-fashioneds, or spiked spiced cider.
