freesia39 Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago Cash is always a good one, along with gift cards. With the ages, those are probably the best ones. Face masks would work as well - just trying to find things that are flat to make life easier for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bopeep Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago You could do different denoms of cash. Throw in some ones, maybe a couple fives, just one ten. Maybe some candy that is reminiscent of their childhood. I've never played the game (I've seen it), so I don't know how much fun this would be - but what if you used "coupons" for things that wouldn't actually wrap well? Like, if one of the gifts was an ornament (I just picked something in my eyesight to use as an example :)) and you included a picture of it in the ball but not the item itself. Does that make sense? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't played this myself either but I like that "coupon" idea. Interestingly enough, my mom used to do something similar for us at Christmas time with the "coupons" when things she'd ordered just hadn't made it in time. When they came in, she'd have us cash in our "coupons" as kind of a - for lack of a better word - "bonus" Christmas. We enjoyed that, even as we got older, knowing that she was loving every minute of making our Christmases great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the type of items we put in ours. It's always a great time with this game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
