Why not a family dreidel game? Play with pennies or peanuts or something. I'm a BT and have plenty of nonobservant family members, and we often played at our family chanukah parties. If it's a very large group who wants to play, maybe play in teams.

Light the candles sing what you sing and enjoy each other's company.

Check out on Chinuch.org for the left/right Chanukah story or you can write one yourself. Everyone has an envelope with a small gift inside it. Someone reads out the Chanukah story and every time they say the word left everyone passes their envelope to the person on their left, and every time they say the word right, everyone passes their envelope to the person on their right. At the end everyone opens the envelope in their hands. We used pens, chocolates, Nash, note paper etc as the gifts - nothing too expensive. We've played this many times with many different groups of people and it's always a lot of fun.

You can do a version of "Yankee swap" but with chanukah/judaica themed items.
