The secret to being a great host? Sugar, spice, and everything nice…and that counts for being a Kahoot! host, too. 

In your race to Host the Most this holiday season, we have some tips and tricks to make Kahoot! the most awesome part of your festivities – whether you’re celebrating a holiday, just a hug, or anything in between!

Share Play – Compete with Friends & Family, Near & Far
Home for the holidays? Taking on some travel? Kahoot! corrals friends and family, both near and far with our latest SharePlay integration. Host and play a kahoot while FaceTiming with friends and family members: our new video and audio conferencing add-ons make it easy to compare holiday outfits in a Ugly Sweater Competition, practice singing along to Christmas Carols, and even brainstorm charades poses and theatrics, all while competing for the Kahoot! Podium. 

Plan ahead and bring Kahoot! to your holiday calendar of events
The Holiday Season is filled with themed parties, gatherings, games, and events. Whether your calendar is family-focused, or a reprieve from day-to-day responsibilities, add kahoot games to your hustle & bustle. The Discover Page is a  perfect one-stop-shop for the last minute planner and is available for all Kahoot! hosts and players, young and old! Crack the code to solve Holiday Emoji Puzzles, race to remember famous Holiday Movie one-liners, and fine tune your singing voice with Christmas Carols.
