You know that feeling in a gift exchange where you open a terrible gift and you know you’re now stuck with it the rest of the night and the game is over for you?

I love that this little spinner means that everyone is in the game the whole time!

If you’re thinking “who even cares??” you have clearly never been to a gift exchange where you felt like an absolute moron for bringing a gag gift while other people brought very nice gifts.

Or you’ve never brought a thoughtful, carefully chosen gift and then gone home with someone’s macaroni craft ornament.

Save everyone a little stress and make it clear what kind of gift exchange you’re hosting. I promise, everyone will be grateful.

Have you been on the wrong end of this before?

I had linked all my best gift exchange ideas that are most definitely NOT white elephant material ❤️

They’re small, affordable, kid-proof, travel-proof, and basically the hero of every bedtime routine, road trip, hotel stay, and nap emergency.

If you’ve ever wondered whether they’re worth it . . .
My DMs (and thousands of you!) say YES.

Want the link to the exact one we love?👇
