\nGifts, ribbon, wrapping paper, tape, etc.<\/p>\n

Activity<\/strong>
\nDivide the group into pairs. Each pair stands hand in hand with their adjoining hands tied together. They are not allowed to use the hands tied together. With their free hands (one with the right hand and other with the left one) they must wrap up the package, bind the ribbon around it and tie it in a bow. The pair which finishes first is the winner. You might also reward the elves with the “best wrapped” gift. To keep in the holiday spirit, why not get gifts for needy children and use this activity as a fun way to wrap them up.<\/p>\n
