This little Grinch is happy because Momma and Daddy Grinch got some fun Christmas games to play indoors so that he didn’t have to freeze his Grinch bum outside during the cold snap.

Make your family happy with a Christmas scavenger hunt, trivia challenge, charades or multi activity game from…you know where.
