I always have a hard time coming up with gift exchange games.
Year #1 that I was with this company, we played a game where I made up riddles (I found it online somewhere, but I had to tweak it for the amount of people we had). Everyone that was participating in the gift exchange was given a number then someone read the clues:
Lucky you, you're # 1
You get to start all the fun.
So grab a gift and grab it quick.
Cause you're the one who gets first pick.
Number 2 you're on the way.
It's time for you to have your say.
Get your gift and when you're done,
Swap it off with number 1.
Number 3 its plain to see.
It's your turn to pick which gift `twill be.
And when your choosing job is through,
Swap with 1 and then with 2.
Number 4 must use your head.
So grab a gift that has some red.
If it doesn't suit you to a `T',
You may swap with 2 or 3.
Jump to it 5, don't drag your feet.
Take your gift back to your seat.
Wonder of wonders, it's yours for a spell.
But what comes next, you can never tell.
I really liked this game and even played it one year with our group of friends.
Year #2, we played the Right and Left Game - you can find it here.
Year #3, it was a simple game of taking a number, waiting for your number to be called and then going up and picking a gift. I believe we had a few steals in there...it was sort of like the Dirty Santa Game.
This year, Year #4, the restaurant was a little further so I prepared something myself that would be quick and easy. We moved to a smaller space last year and our Christmas tree is just too big now, so we got a little tabletop one instead this year. Due to that, our tree looks pretty bare at the moment cuz the ornaments we have at work are just too big for the wee little tree. So I took some Christmasy clipart images, printed them out on cardstock, cut them out and put a number on the back of it. I threaded them with string and hung them on the tree - posing as ornaments and our game. I then used the same images, cut them out and placed them on the gifts as people brought them in. Everyone that was participating was given a piece of paper with a number on it - when I called their number, they come to the tree, find their matching number, look at the image on the back and find the gift that has that image. Simple and quick...the way we wanted it this year!
If you are planning some sort of gift exchange, check out this useful site! We played the dice game last year amongst my group of friends...and this year, we will play a new game!

My ex-boyfriend dumped me 0ne week ago after I accused him of seeing someone else and insulting him. I want him back in my life but he refuse to have any contact with me. I was so confuse and don't know what to do, so I reach to the internet for help and I saw a testimony of how a spell caster help them to get their ex back so I contact the spell caster and explain my problem to him and he cast a spell for me and assure me of 24hours that my ex will return to me and to my greatest surprise the third day my ex came knocking on my door and beg for forgiveness. I am so happy that my love is back again and not only that, we are about to get married. Once again thank you Ishvara Temple. You are truly talented and gifted. Email: ishvaratemple@yahoo.com is the only answer. He can be of great help and I will not stop publishing him because he is a wonderful man.
I want to say thanks to love spell temple for everything so far. To everyone who doesn’t believe in spell, I was one of those ones at first. I wasn’t quite sure if I wanted to do this since I’ve tried others so-called spells casters and they did not work and was a waste of my time and money. However, when I read through the testimonials of other people at this website and after I talked to Dr okadibo who answered all my questions and was very nice about everything, I decided to give it a try. I figured it would be my last try to get my guy back. So my story is that I was at my office when the guy I am in love with told me that he wasn’t in love with me and never will be and that he didn’t want to speak or see me again, especially since he was talking to this other girl. When I talked to Dr okadibo, he let me know which spells would be most appropriate for me and I chose the ones that was to get him back to me and stay with me and want to marry me. As soon as he started on the spells, my guy came back into my life! It was a miracle to me and I’m so thankful for that. Things have been going well, and pretty much according to what Dr okadibo the spell is done. I’m still waiting for the spells to completely manifest, but with all that has happened so far I’m very happy because given only four months ago in March, if you asked me or my friends if I would have anticipated how things were right now…no one would believe it!
