Set Up
Organize your team's making and/or assembling of the gifts. Make sure they packaged so that they can be left at a door even if no one is home - or, schedule the deliveries to be assured that they will include in-person visits. Note: May Day baskets are often left anonymously.
Directions
Deliver the gifts to each house in a neighborhood, or to members of the group around town. A youth group can be divided into subgroups, and walk, bike, or be driven by an adult to the houses of receivers.
Debrief
The gifters could gather after deliveries to have a party and talk about the experience,
Alternatives
Many possibilities. Teampedia would like to hear yours!
