Here is a "left-right" game I wrote for our Christmas white elephant gift exchange! Feel free to steal it and tweak it if you so please. :)


Every year, the Collins family gets together RIGHT on Christmas day to celebrate the day Jesus LEFT His throne in Heaven to be born RIGHT here on Earth.  The party usually starts RIGHT in the middle of the day RIGHT around the time everyone arrives, and no one is LEFT out.  As everyone arrives, we chow down on appetizers LEFT out in the kitchen. The little ones start running around in excitement until they’re eventually LEFT outside with dogs. The older, male cousins head RIGHT inside to play their new video games and the females catch up with each other, making sure everything is alRIGHT with one another. Dinner is then declared ready and everyone gathers RIGHT inside the kitchen to pray over the meal. The food is LEFT out on the counter so everyone can serve themselves what is just RIGHT for them. The kids start getting impatient and question when the gifts LEFT out by the tree will be opened. When an adult gives the RIGHT signal, they charge toward the gifts, tearing up everything LEFT in their path. Hugs and “thank you’s” are RIGHTly given through out the house. Dessert and coffee are made for whatever room might be LEFT in our stomachs and the top buttons of our jeans come RIGHT off. What is LEFT of our energy is put towards a game of Pictionary or Taboo as everyone gathers RIGHT around on the sofas and chairs. Embarrassing pictures are taken as we all get a little too competitive and they’re uploaded RIGHT to Facebook. Once there is not much time LEFT of the day, some begin to head RIGHT home. The night owls that are LEFT of the partiers stick around for a movie and what is LEFT of the dessert and coffee. Once all of us crazy Collins are finally tired and full, the Christmas celebration is over and we are all LEFT with great memories.
