We all know the holidays are awesome — you get to catch up with your extended family, eat way too much yummy food, drink, and (hopefully) get some good gifts along the way. That said, I don’t think I’m alone in feeling like sometimes the festivities can also be a bit… long?

That’s where games come in. But if you don’t happen to have Monopoly or Trivial Pursuit on hand, you can make a game out of a simple household item that most people have in their kitchen. It’s called the Saran Wrap game, but it’s much more than a game — it’s also a gift-giving extravaganza. All you need is a box of Saran Wrap from the grocery store, prizes (cheap stuff like candy, lottery tickets, fuzzy socks, or you can get crazy and put some gift cards in, too), and a pair of dice.

You take the prizes and wrap them up in the layers of a ball of Saran Wrap with the bigger and better prizes toward the center
While one person begins unwrapping the ball, the next player rolls the dice until they roll doubles. Any and all goodies that you unwrap during your turn are yours to keep, but once the doubles are rolled, the ball is passed to the next player.
Some families make it harder by requiring players to don oven mitts or a blindfold, but as you can see from the video below, it’s fun any way you choose to play it. Plus who doesn’t love extra gifts and a good ten minutes of not having to talk to your family at the end of the day?
No one, that’s who. So grab an extra roll of Saran Wrap during your holiday shopping and bring it to your next Christmas party, just in case.
Trust me — you’ll thank me later.
