How to wrap Lego!

Have bought a multitude of lego people for DSS's birthday...

However I am at a loss as to how to wrap them!

I don't want to wrap them simply..ie just paper on/round them as that'll be super obvious what they are and no fun really..

But equally it needs to be relatively simple so DO can help with the wrapping this year...

The only thing I've managed to come up with is slicing open balls from a ball pit and wrapping that.. except thats a massive waste of plastic/balls/I can't justify it to myself at all.

So please, hive mind, help!!

Also ideally I don't want to wrap multiple together, because that takes the fun away.. and he is limited on presents as he has a big one - these are just small ones (literally!) to unwrap

Wrap them up like little crackers or sweets, if you know what I mean?

Buy a Lego base board and stand them all up on that?

Hide them all over the house and give him a set of clues?

How many Lego people are we talking?
Could you put them in the sections of an egg box ?

More than an egg box's worth! (Although we only tend to buy 6 eggs at a time)

I do like this plan for some though! Mix it up a bit

We have plenty of spare boxes hanging around in the garage; i feel this would be quite high on the enjoyment and ease factors...

Thanks for the suggestions - I shall have a chat with DP about which he feels is most doable... and what he thinks DSS would enjoy most!
