"Games to go" Mishloach Manos
This Games to Go Mishloach Manos is a fun-filled Mishloach Manot that will appeal to all ages, young and young at heart!

Game Holder
The bag that I used here is no longer available.
This clear gift bag looks like it should be a good option. Otherwise, there should be many other good choices.

LOVE this idea! Where did you get the plastic cylindars?
What an inventive idea for Purim! I know this unique Mishaloch Manot will really be a hit with my grandchildren, who are now getting older. Can I purchase the supplies on line or do I have to go to a craft store, (which is a problem, seeing that I’m disabled)? I would love to have the details as to how to make this wonderful Mishaloch Manot! Is it possible for me to get the details where I can purchase all the items for this Purim basket? What a sensational idea for this Purim!! Very Impressive!!
LOVE THE IDEA FOR MISHALOCH MANOT! As my grandchildren are getting older, throwing everything in a Purim Bag is not as stimulating and fun as this wonderful idea for Purim! Yasher Koach for the idea!
Hi,

Hi,
