It’s officially that time of year when you’re invited to a bunch of different White Elephant parties. Sometimes they’re for work, sometimes for family, and sometimes for your friends. No matter which one you’re heading to, you’re going to need a decently good/bad Christmas party gift ideas for employees. The point is that whatever you pick is supposed to be ridiculous or, at the least funny. We know. Pressure!
In case you’re considering, a Yankee Swap is a similar thing as a White Elephant party. The majority of people in the northeast call it a Yankee Swap party, but the office Christmas party ideas are usually the same. Here’s how it works:
- Each person pulls a number out of a hat.
- The person with the highest number goes first (this is the worst number to get).
- The said person takes one wrapped gift from the pile and opens it. They now “own” this gift.
- The person with the second-highest number goes next and they can either take the gift of the person ahead of them or take a new wrapped gift from the pile.
That rotation goes on and on. The fun comes in when people are basically “stealing” gifts from other people. The person with the lowest number pulled goes last (which is the best) because they can choose anything that was already opened, typically getting the best Christmas party gift ideas for employees ever.
