Card Game
The idea is to have 2 decks of cards, pass out one deck of cards to everyone at the party circling around giving everyone one at a time until all the cards are gone. Hopefully everyone will come out with an even number of cards.. Have a bunch of nice little gifts wrapped 5 or 10 depending on the amount of guests.. Put the gifts in the center of the room..

Then with the second Deck of Cards have someone call out each card, the person that has the card that is called gets up and picks a prize, when all the prizes are taken from the table, everyone can steal the gifts from each other, when the whole deck has been called out the people with the prizes on their laps keep them..

This game is fun because everyone likes to pick a certain prize that looks interesting and they try to steal it back and forth and other people try not to let you remember they have a prize, but of course they have to keep them in the open....
 
I am thinking if the gifts are small or simple enough--let them keep the gift. Bar of soap, tissues, chap stick, travel size items of things.
 
Could have a deck of kid cards (Old Maid or etc. ) to hand out to them.
 
 
 
 
 
We play Dirty Bingo and steal the gifts.

We had a great ornament gift exchange last year with a script so you had to follow the instructions for stealing - it was so much fun.
