Holiday Activities such as Gingerbread Co-Workers, or Human Snowman Creations
From $150 per person, and it falls as the group grows.
Add 30 minutes of holiday fun to any in-person menu with an activity such as Gingerbread Co-Workers or Human Snowman Creations, and bring some lightness to your party. Each one gets people using their creativity and laughing together, which is what builds better relationships between co-workers. It is offered during the holiday season only, so ask which activity best suits your menu when you book.
Add customized aprons with your guests' names or your company's logo to add a special touch and attention to detail. (+$40/pp)

These are add-ons rather than a menu in themselves, which I hadn't quite understood when booking — you bolt them onto whatever you're already cooking. That turned out to be the appeal. It broke up the holiday party into something more than eating, and the creative bits got people who don't normally speak up on a call actually competing with each other.

The creative element is the point. It's not about skill, it's about giving thirty people something silly to do at the same time, and on that measure it worked better than the icebreakers we'd tried before.
Maya M.
I joined the holiday party from home with my kids drifting in and out, and the activities were the part they wanted in on. They aren't cooking-dependent, so a nine-year-old can take part in the creative bit without being handed anything hot or sharp. It made the whole evening feel less like a work thing being tolerated at home.
Mei B.
We slotted these into an already-booked menu and they cost us nothing in time — they run in the gaps while things are baking or resting. That's the smart part of the design. Our December call went from ninety minutes of watching a screen to something people actually stayed on for.
