HOW TO PLAY

As guest arrive, ask them to put their presents in a pile. When everyone has come, have everyone sit around the pile of presents. The birthday child stands in the middle, selects a present, and reads the card (or has it read). Then the birthday child and the others try to guess what is inside the present. The gift giver may give up to three clues to help them guess. After the clues are used up or after someone guesses correctly, the birthday child opens the present.
