You don't have to wait til Christmas to play this small group game.
Break students up into groups of 3-6. Provide pens/pencils and pretyped slips of paper or 3×5 cards with the names of celebrities or well-known fictional characters (ideas below). Pass one name each to every group or have them choose blindly from a container or your hand.
Give them a pre-determined amount of time to come up with an imaginary wish list for their celebrity. It's up to you if they win based on number of items, originality, or ridiculousness.
Bonus: If you have time, go online to find out what your preselected celebs are into, then give bonus “points” or credit for items that match.
The Point: Kickstarter for a discussion on gifts, giving, prayer (asking God for things), or before Christmas.
