After we ate we played this fun while elephant dice game, it is such a hoot! Basically, everyone who is playing brings a gently used item from home wrapped like a gift. If they can't find anything they can purchase something but the cost should not go over $5. We roll dice and if you get doubles you pick a prize. All the gifts are opened, the game goes on and there is swapping of gifts and then at the end there is stealing of gifts! There is a lot of laughing, and moaning and it is such a hoot, everyone loves this game!! There are many ways to play it but we've revised it so that most everyone goes home with a gift. Hope you enjoy the recipes!!
