White Elephant Wednesday

Take a break from all of your holiday shopping and have some fun. One of the fun things to do during the season is have a holiday party. Join in on the holiday cheer of Christmas parties. Today is White Elephant Day. It’s one of the most enjoyable holidays of this joyous season. On this holiday, small groups get together for a holiday party and exchange gifts while playing the White Elephant game. These gifts are items of some value (not junk) that you no longer want but may be of some value to another person. As you decide what gift you want to contribute to the game, look for things that might evoke laughter when opened. It is also important that all partygoers know how to play the white elephant game before they decide what gift to bring.

Without a doubt, you and your friends are going to have a lot of fun celebrating this holiday. Participating is easy. Here’s how:

• Invite family, friends, neighbors, or co-workers to a party. The location of the party is irrelevant.
• Tell them in advance to bring a white elephant gift. If they are unfamiliar with what it is, explain it to them. 
• Play the game sometime during the party. 
• Have fun!
