White Elephant Gifts Worth Fighting Over

Updated: Dec 7, 2022


Are you looking for the perfect White Elephant Gift? This is one of my favorite traditions our family does for Christmas. In case you're not familiar let me explain how it works.



White Elephant Instructions:

  1. Ask everyone to bring a wrapped gift. Place all gifts in a pile for everyone to see.

  2. Count all the participants and place that many numbers in a hat. For example, if you have 8 participants write numbers 1-8 on small pieces of paper and place them in a hat.

  3. Let each participant draw a number to determine an order to open gifts.

  4. The person who draws number one will choose and open the first gift.

  5. The person who drew number two can choose to open a new gift OR steal the gift the previous player opened.

  6. When a players gift is stolen they can choose to open a new gift or steal someone else's gift.

  7. Each gift can only be stolen 3 times.

  8. Continue until everyone has had a turn.


If you've ever done a White Elephant exchange you know there's usually one gift everyone wants. The favored gift usually gets stolen repeatedly until the game is over. Sometimes it's something valuable or a funny gift. Gift cards are always popular but not very exciting to unwrap.
