Does anyone have any interesting/ fun ideas on how to do a gift exchange.?

Question

We do it by drawing numbers but that's a little boring.

Answer 1

code names? we did that in school and it was fun.. or put a code name and describe the thing you want to receive in one word or something like that.. I don't know, my family used to do exchange gifts too.

Answer 2

you could simply do white elephant. were everyone bring a gift or you can seperate categories to boys and girl gifts and then bring something funny. Either from around the house or something hilarious you couldnt pass up at the store, example gifts we have received....an old statue from someones house that was there when they moved in, a huge remote, homemade food, ect.

Or

You can each make something to exchange we used to do white elephant but people would leave their gifts behind so now everyone makes something to exchange,...i thought it would be dumb but everyone did a great job, example

a corn hole game, frozen meals, scrapbooking cards, jewlery, bird feeders, ect! Good luck

Answer 3

At my office party we all were told to bring a gift suitable for either a male or female and wrapped then at the party we passed the gifts one at a time like musical chairs then the person left holding the gift opened it and stepped aside. The next person had the option of taking the open gift or opening the gift in hand. By the end of the party many gifts had been traded and it was a hoot. Hope this helps!

Answer 4

Secret Santa is always ....each person draw a name and NO ONE supposed to discuss with the other person who they are buying for and on christmas day you put the person's present under the tree with thier name on it and the person who bought the gift remains a secret.
