Christmas Gift Exchange

Misc.

We started a new gift game 2 years ago and it is working out great. Everyone brings a $10.00 gift. We have 20 in our family. We eliminate the small children. Men bring a mans gift and women a womens. All gifts are placed in a pile in the middle of the room. Separate mens from womens. Everyone draws a numbers. 1-20 Number 1 opens a gift. Number 2 can take number ones gift or open a new gift. Number 3 them can take 1 or 2's or open a new until all gifts are gone. This is so fun. We had a folding golf chair last year that was passed around all afternoon. It was great fun. You could have a different $ amount if you wished. This really eliminated what to buy for each individual.
