DD 6th birthday is this weekend. She is expecting Pass the Parcel. I hate this party activity. I never did it as a kid, so have no fond memories of it, so that can't guilt me into it. I think it's a huge waste of my time having me wrap the thing this close to the party (never mind Christmas!) and also a waste of paper. Then there's the keeping track of all the kids to try and make sure they all have a turn unwrapping the present, with added paranoia to wonder if you put a sweet into each layer.
I don't want to do it!
Is there anything else of a similar sort that people could suggest? I was thinking of making a tape ball but I've not done it before, so not sure how well it'll work, nor how much tape I need, how many pieces of tat small toys to include.
