Ask a question or add answers, watch video tutorials & submit own opinion about this game/app. This Christmas party game is a must! We featured the game on AwesomeJelly.com and it has become a huge hit! Here is a video of how to make the game and play.

In this game, a gift has layer and layers of wrapping paper but who will be the lucky person to unwrap the last layer and win the gift! This hot potato type game has variations that can make each unwrapping frustrating and fun.

Wrap a gift (something your guests would enjoy) or gifts (if having several groups) in several layers of wrapping paper. The number of layers depends on how long you want the game to last, plus the more people the more layers. We suggest at least 5 layers, but some people have done up to 15 or more!

1. Have everyone sit in a circle and give your group / groups a gift.
2. Tell them when you turn on the music to pass the gift in one direction and when you turn off the music who ever has the gift gets to take off ONE layer of wrapping paper, continue this until the last layer of paper is taken off and whoever has the gift unwrapped gets to keep it.

Unwrap the Gift Variation
Place a slip of paper in between each wrapping. On each piece of paper will be and Action / Challenge or Prize.

Examples:
Action: Hop on one foot 10 times, Blow up a balloon and pop it, etc… something silly
Prize: Include 1 small prize in 4 or 5 wraps – Could be a candy bar or dollar store gift.

By adding these twists guests don’t know whether they want the gift or not! We recommend you randomly add in these pieces of paper so you don’t even know what is next. Then it is a surprise for everyone.

Dice Doubles – Unwrap the Gift Game
Supplies: Gift, dice, various wrapping paper, tape, scissors

Announce that you are going to play a game where you unwrap a gift.

It sounds simple enough, then after everyone is seated and ready to go place a set of oven mitts next to the gift. Now it gets a little harder!

Get a gift or gift certificate and place in a solid box. We used a hard jewelry case but most boxes will do.
Then wrap the gift with paper, then masking tape, paper, masking tape, paper etc… The more layers, the harder the game will be to play and the more interesting.

Sit everyone in a circle and announce how the game is played.
– Each player takes a turn at rolling 2 dice.
– The first person to roll doubles goes to the center of the circle puts on the oven mitts/gloves and then starts unwrapping the gift with their hands. They can not use their teeth.
– While the person is working on trying to unwap the gift, the dice continue to be rolled and passed until the next person rolls the dice and yells, “Stop unwrapping”.
– At that point the person in the middle must put down the gift, take off the oven mitts/gloves and return to their seat. The next person now puts on the mitts and works to unwrap the gift.

The dice rolling and unwrapping continues until someone finally gets through all the layers of wrapping paper and tape and holds up the gift. Then the gift is theirs to keep.

Hint – to build the excitement, do not tell players that you used masking tape and several layers of paper.

Roll the Dice Gift Exchanges
Supplies: Die or Dice, gifts for the gift exchange and rules

Roll the Dice Gift Exchange is a fun dice gift exchange where the dice determine whether you can steal, keep or if everyone is passing their gifts to the left or right. We provide single die and dice directions and what each roll represents.

Roll the Dice Gift Exchange Single Die Play

Game Prep is pretty easy.
1. You need a single die, people with presents and the roll rule sheet.
2. Second you’ll need to determine how to end the Roll the Dice Gift Exchange before you begin.
Options include:
a. Play until everyone rolls the dice a set number of times. We say 3 times works best.
Then at the end of the last roll you keep the present you have.
b. Play until the last gift is unwrapped.
c. Play until all the gifts are Kept / Safe (takes the longest because not everyone wants their gift.)
NOTE: It is possible to end the game, without all the gifts being unwrapped.

Rules for Roll The Dice Gift Exchange
1. Have everyone bring their gift and come together in a circle / around a table. Tables work best for rolling and passing the die.
2. Randomly determine who goes first. Oldest, youngest, closest birthday to Host’s birthday all work. Once you determine who goes first. That person will roll the die, take their turn and then pass the die to the left for the next person to roll.
3. Explain the Game: Guests will roll the die and what they roll will correspond to the Roll the Dice Gift Exchange rules in the graphic above. Rules include passing gifts, stealing gifts, choosing a gift to keep and unwrapping your gift.
4. Note: If someone Rolls a 1 and chooses to Keep their gift, they are no longer included in the game as they have their gift.
5. State how your the Gift Exchange will end before you begin. After “x” rounds, all gifts opened, etc.
6. If Guest or Guests end up with the gift they brought.
a. If just one guest ends up with the gift they brought, they roll until they can trade or pass with someone in the group.
b. If two people have their own gifts. They simply trade gifts and the exchange is over.
c. Three or more people have their original gift. Just those people with their own gift remain in the game and the next person rolls the die. Odd number – Pass the Right and Even number Pass to the Left and that ends the gift exchange.

Roll the Dice Gift Exchange

Roll the Dice is the more common variation of this game as there are more options. We added a few unique elements that include just guys and just gals, plus clothing colors. Note if you don’t like the options or need to change them because it might be the Women’s Club and there are no guys in the gift exchange go ahead and adjust them. Our rules are guidelines and it is your party, so adjust as needed.

All the rules are the general game play rules are the same as the single die game. See game prep & play above. Once you keep a gift it is yours, your roll determines what you can do and so on. There are just more rolling options. We made the least rolled numbers the most valuable, so there is a reward for rolling double 1’s and 6’s.

Roll the Dice Gift Exchange works really well for groups of 8 – 15 people. The key to success of this gift exchange game is being able to see who is rolling and what they rolled. That is why playing around a table works so well, if no one can see the roll it is less exciting.

Last just remember to define how the game ends, before play begins!
We tend to favor the three rounds option as our favorite because people tend to know that the pressure is on and this works best with groups of 12 or more. However, with small groups 12 and under it can be more fun until all the gifts are unwrapped or claimed “Keep / Safe” from stealing or passing.

FYI – It is possible that the game ends and some gifts are still wrapped.
