Well you take one dice and a group of people together and have a bunch of presents on the table in the center. First roller gets to call a number, any number from 1 to 6 and roll the dice. If he or she gets the number they called, they take a package, open it and put in front of him or her. This goes on until all packages are gone. Then set a timer for say an hour and then you do the same thing except this time you get to take what ever you see that is in front of some one else. This goes on until the timer goes off. Some time you get a lot and some times nothing. It's kind of fun, but be careful as when young children are playing there is usually one crying because he or she loses. So what we do is have some thing for the children to play aslo. We haven't had Christmas with our folks for years and this year it is going to be very interesting with about 20 of uss there. My brother's grand children will be there too and they are very young and I'm sure there will be some crying for one reason or another. Have a great day, Huggies, Fay
