Depends on the age group:\n\nOne cute one is candy-cane reindeer.\n\nWrap a brown pipecleaner around the candy-cane for antlers, and glue on fun eyes.  Add a small red pom-pom for nose.  Hard to describe, but look here....   http://www.kellyskindergarten.com/Christmas/images/CCreindeer.jpeg

If you're a teacher - \nMy cooperating teacher gave me things I could use in my classroom such as an apple shaped timer, reward stickers, a please sign and return stamp, etc. You could get her things like that. I know I really appreciated it.\n\nIf you're a student- \n\nShe'll love if you make her a card and write something sweet in it, what you liked best that she did, etc.

buy a cheap mini xmas tree and get the kids to decorate it. They'll love the fact that they're helping you and it lets them be a little creative.

His and Hers snow caps, scarfs, and gloves!  As parents, adults etc. When it is you scrapping off the cars in the morning or getting the kids into the car etc.  There is nothing better.  If you have the extra change you can even get them embroiered at a local sewing shop.  Check the Yellow Pages for seamstresses.  When  you call ask if they do embroiery, how much per word or letter, and how quickly they can have it done.  It would be a nice touch and shouldn't cost too much per letter.  In fact you could just get their initials! \n\n\nFor the Party, Why not try hot dogs for the main course instead of just the nachos.  Or you can get some: \nSmall cocktail franks and barbecue sauce.  Pour all contents into a crock pot and allow to simmer for about 2 hours b4 you serve.  \nThen serve chips and dip (Nachos would be good) \nFresh fruit with sweet chocolate dip.  \nHot Cocoa or Fruit Punch\nThese are tested on my kids and are inexpensive ways to feed several kids in a party type atmosphere.  They are also really good and good for them, (I know, boring mom stuff).  \nThe cupcakes sound like a really good idea!  There is a way to put a firework design on the tops in icing.  So that when you hand them out it will look nice and festive!  \n\nSounds like you have a good grasp at the age of 16 of what is truly important.  \nHope This Helps!\nAmy

If it's a big high school you could fundraise and start a high school radio channel, and get sponsorship from local businesses in return for mentioning them during adverts and between shows.\nYou could start making something useful and sell it off for less than the usual price. In my school we made pot pourri sachets and ornaments. They sold very well. \nYou could get local businesses to sponsor a group from your school to do a play or a mini marathon or something. That way you would be promoting the local businesses and would be making money for charity, and would be keeping health and wellbeing in the project.

When they get old enough to write, a journal about how xmas made them feel.\nA creative, imaginative story that takes a different shape every year but still embodies a consistent premise and possibly lead character...\nfood assocations with xmas are priceless (cookies, jam tarts..hmm yummy)...\npossible A Christmas Story viewing each year :)\nA particular hat, that hopefully they will love that you can possibly limit to once a year (until they get excited 3 months before xmas!!)\na sock puppet show (you can do alot with a little)...\nhaving a fire with crackling wood on xmas eve when it is cold...\nmaking a home-made movie, complete with props, great screenplay, lead actresses, directors, producers, the whole shabang!\nhappy holidays to you too..

I thought up a Chrismas lingerie party. Red, white, and green teddy's, camisoles, robes, boxers came to mind. Christmas-themed print designs would be cute as well. A fun way to entertain your guests would be to invest in some fondue kits for your guests to dip into eg. (chocolate-covered fruits or marshmallows,  gravy/sauces for meat on a stick, cheese-dipped breads). You can search fondue recipes on the internet and you will find numerous variations.  I suggest offering warm&cold cocktails such as :\n-Cranberry Martinis\nIce cubes \n1 cup vodka \n1/4 cup dry vermouth \n1/2 cup cranberry juice \n8 cranberries, frozen \n4 lemon zest twists \n\nPut 4 martini glasses in the freezer to chill for at least 30 minutes\n\n-Chocolate Mint\n1 oz. Peppermint Schnapps or Creme de Menthe \nHot Chocolate\n\nCombine in a footed mug.\n\n-Hot Apple Cider Rum\n6 oz. of heated hot aple cider\n1 oz. (shot) of rum\n\nUse a footed mug.\n\n-Holiday Bellini\n 4 oz.  champagne  (chilled)  \n 1 oz.  apricot nectar  or liqueur  \n\nPor into chilled champagne flutes and stir very gently.\n\nIf the lingerie/robe idea is too racy for you and/or your guests, you can ask the men to come as sata and the woman to come as Mrs. Claus.\n\nAs far as decorating ideas, it's always tasteful to buy long green garland and wrap christmas lights and tie red velvet bows to it and handg from door ways, wrap around banisters or columns, and drape around the edges of tables in a scalloped fashion. You can purchase glittery, false snow and sprinke it on table cloth. Miniture jingle bells and red bows can be tied around stemware. Be sure light festive candles and play holiday nusic in the background to set the mood. Have fun!

Tis the season...\n\nSo gingerbread would work well.  You could go so far as to make the axles out of the straight parts of candy canes.
