Yes, line up the chairs all along the wall.. and have one person in the middle passing out gifts to people. The people might get lost in the sea of wrapping paper though.. but at least it won't be as cramped. Best Wishes!Need advice on how to....?
Adults on the chairs/sofa,children on the floor at the adults feet.Works for me as my home is quite small and there will be 14 of us.
Keep a big garbage bad nearby and put the paper/boxes,bows etc into it as you go along so there is no big cleanup to do after.
Have one person hand out gifts so not everyone is moving around at the same time.
Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Empty it out, leaving just enough chairs for the grown-ups, and just the necessities.
Put a few collection receptables around the room, so one big one doesn't have to be passed.
In my family, we do each present one-at-a-time, so everyone can see reactions. Either youngest or oldest opens one, then next, then keep going, until all are gone.
However, if there are little ones with uneven presents, this may be unwise -- and if it's too cramped for too long, the natives will get restless.
