Players sit in a straight line. “IT” stands in front of one player. This player asks “IT”, “what would you like for Christmas?” “Can you guess” answers “IT”. He then makes some motion that will show what he wants for Christmas. He may pretend to blow a horn, pat a kitten or puppy, or kick a football. If the player guesses correctly, “IT” says “Merry Christmas” and that player becomes “IT”. If he guesses incorrectly, “IT” stands in front of another player.
You can say “Happy Birthday”, “Happy Easter” or whatever happens to be appropriate when you play this game.
– Crossroads of America, 1992
