A child drew out a slip and immediately exchanged it with the person who matched the description of the slip. Then the next person in the circle was given a chance to draw a slip. No mayhem at all.

The person who drew the slip had to follow the instruction and exchange the gift that they brought to the party with the person who matched their instruction. After everyone had drawn slips and exchanged gifts, we went around the circle and each child opened the gift that they had in their hand.
