Again having younger family members, several of them do not know the difference between their right and their left, so if we said pass the gift left, who knows where it might end up…in essence, it just would be too complicated and possibly frustrating. So I after considering several clever ideas, I settled on a Santa Swap style of exchanging gifts. Print the game pieces in color on white cardstock.
Here is a sampling of the directions on the cards:. Cut out the gift exchange game cards on the dotted line. Place the game cards in a gift bag. But there is still a little wiggle room because if you have the card to swap with someone wearing red, you get to pick which person to go with.
This is where packaging comes in for sure so be creative with it. Once the file opens in Dropbox, click on the three dots at the top of the page and then click on Download. Let me know! Thanks for this! Some people love the stealing part and others hate it. So this is a nice alternative! Your email address will not be published.

Then play some Christmas gifts music as you tell your guest to start passing their gifts around the circles until the music being played stops. The moment the music stops, the people with the gifts in their hands will start unwrapping them while showing the other people in the group and leaving the circle while holding their gifts.
That will be the gift they will have. Then the same can be done with a different gift and a different person till everyone in the group unwraps their gift and is out of the game. Never Have I Ever While playing this game, start by placing the gifts in a pile in the middle of the room. Then, everyone will stand in a circle around the pile and randomly grab the gifts and place them on the ground near their feet. The first person that will grab a never have I ever paper will slip it from the bowl and read it aloud.
For example, never have I ever cheated in a board game. Then, all the other people who have done what the card says will have to switch places with someone else who is not an immediate person towards the right or left while leaving their gift on the ground. It will give your group players a chance to be creative. The gifts can be baked cookies, painted items, or even artwork.
Cobweb gift exchange This game fits a small group well. You will start by purchasing some inexpensive yarn balls with different colors for each guest. When your guests arrive, start collecting their exchange gifts, then tie one end of the colored string to each package. Then choose a room where the guests are not many.

For example, once everyone has thrown the die twice, then guests get to keep the gift in their hands. Everyone stands around a table and takes turns rolling the dice.
When someone throws doubles, they put on the oven mitts and try to unwrap the first gift. Instead of buying gifts, guests buy gift cards instead. Be sure to let everyone agree on a gift card amount so everyone gets a card of equal value.
Gift cards can usually be used at several outlets , and guests get to choose something they really want or need. You can play any of the gift exchange games with your gift cards, but I prefer the Guess The Guest or Christmas Gift Auction for this one.
