I'm looking for different Types of Christmas Gift Exchanges. I know of White Elephant, and Secret Santa. I was wondering if anyone knew of any others that would be similar.
Answer
I have never heard of the White Elephant, but it may be the same as what my extended family does at Christmas. Each person brings a wrapped gift around $20.00, marks them as a man, woman, or either gift. We each draw a number, number 1 picks a gift from under the tree, each person can either take a gift from under the tree or take another persons gift. It gets to be very funny, but make sure that there isnt a cry baby in the group or they will ruin it for everyone.
My 82 year old Dad doesn't shop, so for Christmas he cracks open walnuts very carefully removes the meat of the nut and replaces it with money. Then he glues them back together and hangs them on a tree branch. Each of us takes turns picking a nut from the tree cracking it open to find our surprise inside. It can be anywhere from a nickle to $100.00 bill. He devised this plan saying that he doesn't have to worry with shopping, and no one could ever say that he favors one child/grandchild/great grandchild over another.

My nephew is turning 1 this month, whats a good gift to get him!?
Q. I don't want to spend over 50$ but I also want him to enjoy it for many years to come! I was looking at babies-r-us but i'm not sure what he would like since i've never had any nephews or nieces help!
Answer
You can get lots of things for under $50 even under $20. Try K-mart.
How about a toy mobile phone?
Can he walk? A push along walker, perhaps.
Anything he can make noises with or that produce noises are always popular!!
