<!-- This is the Activity Template.
Giving gifts is fun. Delivering them to people's doors can be a way to have a nice interaction with neighbors, friends, or members of some group.
We offer here two examples of traditions from different cultures -for May Day and for the spring Jewish holiday of Purim.
-->
<!-- ENTER YOUR INFORMATION BELOW-->
===Objectives===
Fun, spreading cheer, getting to know each other and people outside of the group.
===Group Size===
===Materials===
Gifts!
May Day: Roll a piece of construction paper into a cone; add a paper handle, and staple or paste it to stay. Fill it with a bouquet of fresh cut flowers. Repeat!
Purim: Make hamentashen the traditional triangle-shaped pastry filled with a prune-and-nut mixture or other sweets). Put them in festive bags, along with other goodies, if desired, to enjoy with the hamenatshen - such as dried fruit and nuts, and tea bags.
===Set Up===
Organize your team's making and/or assembling of the gifts. Make sure they packaged so that they can be left at a door even if no one is home - or, schedule the deliveries to be assured that they will include in-person visits.
Note: May Day baskets are often left anonymously.
===Directions===
Deliver the gifts to each house in a neighborhood, or to members of the group around town.
A youth group can be divided into subgroups, and walk, bike, or be driven by an adult to the houses of receivers.
===Debrief===
The gifters could gather after deliveries to have a party and talk about the experience,
===Alternatives===
Many possibilities. Teampedia would like to hear yours!
