Tips For Playing The Gift Swap Game! The Gift-o-rama Extravaganza
• Everyone starts the game with their own gift. (Don't worry! They won't be keeping it for long! 😉)
• Everyone takes a turn being the "Gift Snatcher". When done, pass to the right.
• If you or the group don't like the action, can't complete it, it's a duplicate or there is no "winner", just click again for a new action!
• Many actions require responses from the group. Sometimes, a show of hands is best.
Othertimes, it's best to go around the group one at a time, with everyone answering the question.
• It is ok if more than one person gives the same answer to the question. It's just more people the "Gift Snatcher" gets to choose from!
• For voting, majority of hands up, wins!
• For some actions, the other person can prevent the steal by knowing the answer to a question.
If they answer correctly, that person can choose to still swap gifts or not (their choice!) If no swap, then the "Gift Snatcher" taps for a new action.
Gift Exchange Game Action Examples
Here are just a few examples from the game:
"Candy, candy canes, candy corn and syrup! Swap with someone holding a sugary snack or drink. If they know the movie, they don't have to swap and you spin again. (Answer: Elf)"
"Do the "O Christmas Tree" Trade. Hands up! Who has a real Christmas tree at home? Swap with someone in this group."
"Ask everyone if they've been Naughty or Nice this year. Trade gifts with someone who claims to be on the 'Nice List'!"
""It's a Wonderful Life" Switch: Trade with the person who has impacted your life the most this year."
Questions About Gift Swaps?Grumpy Answers!
A Grumpy Old Elf answers your questions about Gift Swaps:
- What is a Christmas gift swap or Christmas present exchange?
Alright, you dragged me into this, so let's get on with it. Don't expect sugarplums and fairy dust here — just the facts about your gift-swapping shenanigans.
So what is a gift swap? It's exactly what it sounds like — a bunch of people swapping gifts and pretending they're surprised. You throw some wrapped presents in a pile, follow some rules (hopefully ones that make sense), and try not to start a family feud. Festive enough for ya? - How do gift swap games work?
First, everyone brings a gift (if they actually remember). Then you pick numbers, use Clumsy the Elf's Gift-orama Extravaganza game, or roll dice like it's a holiday casino. People choose gifts, steal them, or trade until someone ends up with a gift they didn't want but will smile about it anyway. Classic holiday chaos! - What are some popular gift swap games?
Oh, sure, let me list some holiday gift swap ideas for you:
• Secret Santa: The only game where people try to act sneaky while buying a scented candle.
• Clumsy's Gift-o-Rama: Cuz elves gotta know how to make gift swapping fun, right?
• White Elephant: Bring something weird or useless and watch Aunt Sally fight over a whoopee cushion.
• Themed Swaps: Great if you like rules. Pick a theme like "cozy stuff" or "things no one needs but laughs at anyway."
• Dice Games: Roll, swap, unwrap, repeat. It's basically holiday gambling. - What types of gifts are good for a gift swap?
Office parties aren't the same without a Dunder Chicken!
If you want my advice (and you probably don't), stick to the classics:
• Fun and quirky gifts (rubber chickens never fail).
• Something cozy (because who doesn't love socks?).
• Food (chocolate wins hearts, trust me).
Or bring a snow globe. Everyone loves those... except me. They're just messy. - How do I set a price range? What is a good range for a gift swap?
Here's a tip from the Grumpy Elf: make it cheap. Nobody needs to go broke buying fancy gifts for a game. $10-$20 is fine unless your group's a bunch of overachievers. Then I guess it's $50 and a fight for the fanciest cheese board. - Can kids join a gift swap?
Sure, let the little rascals in on the interactive gift exchange. Just keep it simple. No "stealing" rules unless you want tears. Wrap up some toys, art supplies, or candy, and watch the chaos unfold. Kids love chaos. I've seen the workshop; trust me. - How can I organize a successful gift swap?
Here's the Grumpy Elf's official foolproof plan for the ol' Festive Present Switcheroo:
• Set the rules and make'em simple. You can't get more simple than an elf, so we use Clumsy the Elf's Gift-orama Extravaganza game
• Pick a price range—don't make people break the bank.
• Tell everyone to show up on time (ha, good luck).
• Add snacks, music, and laughter—and maybe some patience. - What's the difference between White Elephant and Yankee Swap?
A white elephant doing a Yankee swap!
Nuttin'! Just different names for people arguing over who gets the blanket and who's stuck with the avocado-shaped candle. Call it what you want: a Holiday Gift Exchange; a Thieving Secret Santa; or just a Present Swap — it's still a riot (or may cause one!) - What is Clumsy the Elf's Gift-o-Rama Extravaganza Christmas Swap game?
