When our family gets together to celebrate Christmas and open presents, we take turns wearing a Santa hat and handing out presents. We hand out one gift at a time and everyone watches while it's being opened. When the present is opened, that person puts on the hat and reaches under the tree to give away the next present.
A couple years ago Friedel (our "adopted" step mom, of sorts) started a new twist on that tradition when she suggested that each person should sing a Christmas song before opening their present.
We don't have a lot of brave singers in our family, but this has turned out to be a lot of fun, trying to think of something nobody has sung yet, or trying to come up with an obscure song that everyone has forgotten.
