A fun way to give little goodies to your party guests is with this game. It is sort of a musical chairs type of game, but the one with the parcel at the end is truly the winner.

You need to prepare ahead of time and wrap something yummy like a chocolate bar in about 10 layers. Add a sticker to each layer that describes something the person who unwraps that layer must do, such as:

1. Sing a love song
2. Tell about your most embarrassing moment
3. Draw a picture of your spouse
4. Do a break dance
5. Blow a kiss to the person on your right
6. Tell something you wish you knew how to do (i.e. change a tire, sew)
7. Give the host a hugs
8. Sing the National Anthem
9. Sing Happy Birthday, using blue for each word instead
10. Walk across the room as it you are on a tightrope
11. Describe a picture in the room as if you were a famous art critic
12. Name three blue foods
13. Act like you have an itchy rash
14. Say you name as if you have a bad cold
15. Tell the Host what you like most about his home
16. Try to make the player on your left laugh
17. Act as if you are putting on a pair of jeans that are too tight
18. Pretend you are leading an orchestra
19. Say, “Gorgeous girls grab grape green goblets” three times fast
20. Act like you’re from a foreign country and ask directions to the bathroom

Play some music and start passing the package around the room. When the music stops, the person holding it must unwrap a layer and do what the sticker tells them. The person who unwraps the last layer wins and gets the goodie.
