Toilet Paper Snowman Game: Rules and Ideas

In the Toilet Paper Snowman game, each team wraps one player in toilet paper until they look like a snowman. It is a funny game for families, kid parties and friend groups, and it makes great photos.

How to Set Up

1. Split into teams of three to five. You need at least two teams.
2. Give each team the same number of toilet paper rolls.
3. Pick a clear area with room for each team to work.
4. Set out any extras, such as a hat, scarf or paper carrot nose.
5. Choose a judge, or plan for everyone to vote at the end.

How to Play

1. Each team chooses one person to be the snowman. Tell them to stand still with their arms out or by their sides.
2. Start the timer for five minutes.
3. Team members wrap the snowman in toilet paper, starting at the feet and working up to the shoulders.
4. Add a hat, scarf or paper nose to make the snowman stand out.
5. Keep the face clear. Never wrap paper over the eyes, nose or mouth.
6. When time is up, everyone stops. The snowman stays still while the judge walks by.
7. The judge or group picks a winner.

Scoring and Winning

Give each team up to 10 points in each of these: neatness, creativity and snowman look. Add them up. The highest score wins. For a simpler game, just clap for each snowman and pick a winner by volume.

Tips for a Fun Game

• Pick a snowman who is happy to be wrapped.
• Pull the paper gently so it does not rip too soon.
• Have a trash bag ready for clean-up.
• Take a photo of each snowman before the end.
• Tell teams how long they have at the start, then call out when one minute is left.

Variations

• Snow Couple: Teams wrap two players, a snowman and a snow-lady.
• Silent Round: No talking while building. Teams may only point and gesture.
• Little Kids Version: Let kids wrap a grown-up and use only one roll. Give every child a prize.
