White Elephant Gift Exchange. If you have ever been part of one you know just how much fun these can be! We recently had a white elephant gift exchange at our work Christmas party. The invitation said "G" rated, and yet somehow I ended up taking home one of the only gag gifts...a 50DDD bra! You'd have to know, but that is so like me to end up with the gift like that! Before sending out the invitations for you party, you may want to include if there is a price limit (ours was $5 or less) and decide if it matters if the items being gifted should be funny, re-gift items, useful items, etc. (Just a suggestion!) Also, choose how you want to gifts to be passed out....Christmas With the Right Family might be just what you need to get things moving!
A new game I haven't heard of before, but sounds like a complete blast is this paper plate game.
Here is what to draw:
1. Draw a line for a floor.
2. Draw a Christmas Tree. Add decorations if you feel so inclined.
3. Draw a star on top of your tree.
4. Draw a fireplace with a mantel next to the tree.
5. Draw a stocking hanging from the mantel of your fireplace.
6. Draw a present below the tree.
2. Draw a Christmas Tree. Add decorations if you feel so inclined.
3. Draw a star on top of your tree.
4. Draw a fireplace with a mantel next to the tree.
5. Draw a stocking hanging from the mantel of your fireplace.
6. Draw a present below the tree.
Rubric for the Plate Game:
1. 2 points if the tree touches the floor.
2. 2 points if your stocking is touching your mantel.
3. 1 point if your star touches your tree.
4. 1 point if your star is above your tree.
5. 1 point for every Christmas ornament ball that is ON your tree, etc.
6. 1 point if your fireplace doesn’t touch the tree (it’s a fire hazard!).
7. 1 point if you actually drew something decorative on your stocking (or something cute, like a tiny kitten peeking out).
8. 2 points if your present is under your tree.
2. 2 points if your stocking is touching your mantel.
3. 1 point if your star touches your tree.
