Almost every festive song playing on the radio from November through December will tell you there's no place like home for the holidays, but sometimes that very sweet thought can also be overwhelming. Having a house full of people to entertain is a lot of pressure. In addition to making sure you have enough delicious food, you also want to make sure you have some entertainment outside of the holiday movies you'll snuggle up and watch together.
That's where games come in. But not just any games — we're talking hilariously gross games! Not only will these have your kids in stitches from laughing so hard, but they're also fun for just about anyone, including parents and grandparents. Whether you want to give these as gifts or play them all season long, keep reading for 20 of them now, and get ready to LOL.
1 What's in Ned's Head?
Kids love surprises, even when they're bugs and dirty socks, right? What's in Ned's Head? ($15, originally $20) lets players of all ages reach inside Ned's brain to find these kinds of icky items.
2 Bean Boozled
Jelly bean lovers will be either pleasantly surprised or completely in shock at the flavours that await them after they spin the wheel of Bean Boozled ($5, originally $6).
3 Who Tooted?
Who Tooted? ($19, originally $30) is the kind of thing potty-joking kids (and adults) dream of. Get the whole family involved and try to keep a straight face when it's your turn to toot.
4 Swatto
Try to swat as many nasty flies as possible while playing Swatto ($22).
5 Pimple Pete
Popping pimples might be a guilty pleasure for people, but kids will definitely still squirm and giggle while trying to pop as many as they can during a game of Pimple Pete ($17, originally $20).
6 Farty Franny
A cow that passes gas and flies that buzz around players? Yep. Farty Franny ($19) has it all.
7 Stinky Pig
In this novelty game, family members have to try their hardest to not collect coins, or have the Stinky Pig ($9, originally $13) fart on them.
8 Toilet Trouble
Young kids might have little to no experience unclogging toilets, but playing Toilet Trouble ($15, originally $22) will teach 'em a thing or two.
9 Totally Gross
Totally Gross ($19, originally $25) truly lives up to its name. The award-winning game requires parents and kids to answer science questions by acting out the Gross Out challenges.
10 Poop: The Game
When kids play Poop: The Game ($10), poop jokes aren't just acceptable — they're encouraged. The goal is to run out of cards first while remembering the rules of the game and rules that players make on their own.
11 What's That Smell?
What's That Smell? ($16, originally $20) is a guessing game that makes family members smell over 50 different fragrances, from delicious to disgusting. Nose clips not included.
12 Bugs in the Kitchen
Family and friends need to work together while playing a round of Bugs in the Kitchen ($26), creating paths and trapping gross bugs throughout the game.
13 Doggie Doo
Doggie Doo ($18, originally $23) is a lot like having a real dog — there's a lot of poop scooping. Whoever has the most tokens after cleaning up his mess wins the game!
14 Plunge It!
Put kids to work with Plunge It! ($20), a fast-paced game that makes anyone who cleans up the foam poop the fastest a winner.
15 Snot It
Flu season is upon us, and Snot It ($20) couldn't be a better way to practice for it.
16 Gooey Louie
When you stick your finger up his nose and pick out the wrong booger, Gooey Louie ($18, originally $32) loses control. Kids will be so preoccupied with how funny it is, they won't even notice they're using their fine and gross motor skills, too.
17 Pop! the Pig
Pop! the Pig ($16) has quickly become a favourite. Feed the pig cheeseburgers, and watch his belly grow until it explodes.
18 Scabs 'N' Guts: The Meducational Board Game
Scabs 'N' Guts: The Meducational Board Game ($19) might seem like just another yucky game, but it actually teaches players of all ages a lot about the human body.
19 Gas Out
During Gas Out ($12, originally $15), if Guster the gas cloud farts during your turn, you're out!
20 Don't Step In It!
Try not to laugh while walking around blindfolded on the Don't Step In It! ($13, originally $20) game mat, which is littered with look-alike piles of poop.
