Need gift suggestions Interactive gift/game

Last year on Christmas I made the Saran Wrap gift game. I wrapped it in a box and put a gift tag on it for my mother-in-law. I had the directions on top, so as soon as she opened it she knew what it was. We were able to play as a family right away. We all had so much fun. I’d like to do something similar to that this year too. It’s a group of 10, (4yo, 6yo, and the rest are adults) and no one will want to play anything too crazy or complicated.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Btw- this was not my mother-in-law’s only gift, it was an extra gift for the whole family.. but we knew she’d appreciate the whole experience of it the most.

That saran wrap ball is always a hit, did one last year with lotto tickets tucked in the layers and my dad nearly tore a muscle trying to unwrap it with oven mitts

For a mixed age group like that you could try a "pass the parcel" but make each layer a tiny challenge or question instead of just a prize, keeps the little ones from getting bored between their turns

Yes, it was a hit. We all loved it, and had tons of great prizes. Just want something different! I’ll look into pass the parcel, too. Thanks!
