For our extended family Christmas party this year, I decided to take the Saran Wrap Ball game to a whole new level. I have seen online and even played ones where there's mostly candy, and a few prizes and they are way fun! But I wanted to make it even more exciting. We asked each family member to contribute money instead of bringing a dollar gift to help buy all of this stuff. Here are some pictures of most of what we put in ours. The items mostly came from Amazon, Dollar Tree and Walmart.
Since we made 4 saran wrap balls the blankets and filled mugs were in the middle. I made the designs on the mugs with my Cricut.
Then we wrapped the bigger gifts. Some of them we combined to make sure the items were more even in price. I love this wrapping paper we used from Dollar Tree.
We made 4 balls to help things go faster with 35+ people expected to come. So while we wrapped and sorted we put them into 4 boxes.
Once everything was wrapped we wrapped them in Saran Wrap and Cling Wrap. Here's how they turned out...
It was so fun to play this game at the party! We put tables in a square and everybody sat on the outside of it. We started a ball in each corner and the person on the left rolled dice until they got doubles and then they had a chance at ripping into it. Everybody ended up with a couple of gifts at least. Not only have we played this for Christmas, I have played it at Thanksgiving and even made one for a camping trip for the kids.
Have you made one? What did you put inside?
Those prizes are the bomb!
