Exchange gifts, anyone?

CHRISTMAS STORY
Everyone, PLEASE sit in a circle holding the gift YOU brought for the Christmas Party. I will read a story slow enough for gifts to be passed. Every time the word RIGHT is read, everyone passes the gift they are holding to the right. Every time the word LEFT is read, everyone passes the gift they are holding to the left. When you hear the word FORWARD, pass the gift to anyone across from you. The gift each person is holding when the story ends is the gift they keep.

CHRISTMAS WITH THE RIGHT FAMILY

Christmas was almost here, and Mother RIGHT was finishing the Christmas baking. Father RIGHT, Sue RIGHT, and Billy RIGHT returned from their last-minute Christmas errands. They then moved FORWARD into the living room.

“There is not much LEFT to be done,” said Father RIGHT as he came into the living room. “Did you leave the basket of food at church?” asked Mother RIGHT. I left it RIGHT where you told me to,” said Father RIGHT. I’m glad my shopping is done,” said Billy RIGHT. “I don’t have any money LEFT.” The hall telephone rang, and Susan RIGHT LEFT to answer it. She rushed back and told the family, “Aunt Tillie RIGHT LEFT a package for us RIGHT on Grandma RIGHT’s porch. I’ll go over there RIGHT away and get it,” she said as she LEFT in a rush.

Father RIGHT LEFT the living room and brought FORWARD the Christmas tree. By the time Susan RIGHT returned, Mother RIGHT, Father RIGHT, and Billy RIGHT had begun trimming the tree. The entire RIGHT family sang carols as they finished the decorating. Then they LEFT all the presents arranged under the tree and went to bed, hoping they had selected the RIGHT gifts for their family.

Now I hope you have the RIGHT present for yourself, because that’s all that’s LEFT to our story…………………………………..except to wish you a Merry Christmas…………………………isn’t that RIGHT?????
