1. List five courtesy rules for giving and receiving gifts
Giving:
- Give a gift that matches the one you are giving the gift to
- Don't expect a gift in return
- Giving a meaningful gift is better than giving the most expensive gift.
- Find out what price range the gifts are supposed to be.
- Remember "It is better to give than to receive."
Receiving:
- Read the card or note first
- Say "thank you"!
- Take the time to look at the gift you've received before you open your next gift
- Don't say "I've already got one of those" even if you do! Your friend was simply thinking of something you might like.
- Be sure to send a thank you card or phone call.
2. Do the following:
a. Collect different types of wrapping paper, at least ten grades, five-by-seven centimeters (2 x 3 inches) in size.
There are many types of wrapping paper.
Food gifts:
Waxed paper and cellophane as well as polyethylene, polypropylene, and laminate. Sometimes a foil or kraft paper overwrap will be used after the food preservation layer of wrapping has been applied.
Boxed/non-perishable gifts:
There are four weights/types of wrapping paper commonly used:
Kraft paper: This paper comes as a newsprint weight and as a heavier weight that feels a lot like the paper grocery paper bags used in many grocery stores.
Foil: aluminum foil is processed in different colors or is embossed or die-cut. Sometimes it is combined at a factory with a kraft paper to create a dual-layer product
Tissue paper: This is the classic Victorian era wrapping. You can use different layers or color combinations to create stunning wrapped gifts.
A detailed discussion is available at Encyclopedia.com [1]
The teacher can collect sheets/rolls of the ten different types, then cut them into smaller pieces for the Pathfinder participants. The samples can be displayed by gluing them to a poster board, hole punching as a "stack" with a bow on top, or even creatively used to ALL show up on a single wrapped gift or small cardboard box.
b. Choose a suitable gift wrap pattern for wrapping a gift to a child, an adult, a sister, a brother, etc
Pattern is the design or combination of colors/papers used to wrap the gift.
Designs can be handmade stamps on kraft paper, a pre-printed or embossed store-bought design, or layers of tissue paper that create new colors and patterns when they are combined.
Teachers - this is a great opportunity to allow participants the creativity of making their own paper designs. Ink pads, themed stamps, and Kraft paper -- think newsprint or grocery bags (white, colored, or brown) can then be used to create repeating designs of color/stamp designs.
c. Demonstrate carefully wrapping a simple rectangular box in paper.
3. Wrap the following types of gifts with ornamental supplement:
a. in the form of a cube
b. in the form of a cylinder
c. multifaceted
d. extraordinary (your option).
4. Know how to make a gift bow (3 types).
These three sites show some possibilities.
