Capture holiday spirit and staff fun with a white elephant gift exchange

Its-time-to-share

What are you planning for the day before holiday break? Tap into your staff members’ anticipation of a vacation with an activity that captures the holiday spirit and promotes staff interaction.

Have fun and get rid of clutter with a white elephant gift exchange. Think anything unicorn or grumpy cat, silly straws, bacon socks, 3-D dinosaur cookie cutters, banana slicers, inflatable fast foods, a Wicked Witch bookmark, an electric egg cooker, cheese grater or yogurt maker.

Every household has items destined for the $1 garage sale table. Have students go online for some homemade possibilities. The exchange is hilarious and there are a number of variations to make it even more unpredictable.
