Train potty

My husband and I have started a new Christmas tradition.

This year marked our second annual White Elephant and Service party, where guests bring donations for the local youth shelter I volunteer at, and we play the fun white elephant game. We provide all the yummy food and desserts for the party. I think it's a fun way to ring in the Christmas spirit of service and enjoy the best gift-giving game ever. Who doesn't love the craziness of a white elephant game?

I like to have a game for my guests to play while everyone arrives, mingles, eats. So, this year I designed my own game! Inspired by a game of Cadoo I played with the shelter children recently, I wanted to create a picture game that helped you guess words. So, for our White Elephant and Service party, I thought of Christmas words that I could break down into pictures. Once I had an idea of what pictures could form a word, I used the amazing Google Image Search to find what I needed.
