Heard a few things about toy party's....... Think it's a great way to break the ice and meet other peeps! Anyone up for one very early August? We arrive as newbies on the 1st! Upto $25 dollars per gift/toy and as others have suggested we could make a game of it ?!? Any ideas? Who's in?
"Borrowed" this from another thread.... Explains it quite well! However feel free to suggest any changes Here are the rules: When planning the party, decide how much should be spent on the gifts. We think $25 is a good average since each couple is buying only one gift. All gifts should be wrapped when you get to TTR (and may I suggest you make yours look extra special). Put the gifts together on a table. Each person selects a number playing card from a basket to determine the order in which a person gets to select a gift. Number 1 goes first and gets to select and unwrap a gift. Everyone oohs and aahs or mentally thinks, “Boy, I’m glad I didn’t select that.” Number 2 then selects. But that couple may take Number 1’s gift or they may select a gift from the pile. If they take Number 1’s gift, Number 1 gets to select again from the pile. After they have finished their turn, Number 3 gets to select. Once again, they may select any opened or unopened gift. Each time a gift is taken away from someone, that person gets to select again. They may select any gift except the one that was just taken away from them. They may however, have the opportunity to select it again later. Some gifts are occasionally more popular and may get stolen several times. The Third person to possess it gets to keep it. No more swiping the gift. The gift is frozen. At the end of the game, Number 1 gets to select again, and take someone else’s gift if they want to, but they don’t have to. They are actually forcing a trade. The only gifts they can’t take are those that are frozen. Don’t be afraid to swipe a gift from someone. The more takeaways and turnovers there are the more fun the game seems to be. Some of the best times have been when a particular gift gets swiped several times. There are always lots of laughs and sometimes gifts get swiped just for the fun of it. This is especially true when men are playing. They don’t seem to care about the gifts as much as having fun stirring things up. Thoughts?
Basically yer.... But being creative with your presents rather than just vibes would be good, presents could be anything but just remember if it does needs batteries bring em . A few dud presents would help the game along lol
