Our gym does a pizza party, gift exchange ($10 max) and ice skating party. We meet at the gym, eat pizza, the gym gives all the kids gifts, then they do the gymnast gift exchange. After that we are off to an area ice skating rink for a couple hours with all of the gymnasts, coaches, staff and families.
For our gift exchange they group the girls by levels and each level forms a circle. They then tell a left - right story. You can make one up or find one online but essentially the story has the words left and right tons of times through the story and the girls pass their gift left or right. At the end of the story you open the gift that you are holding. It is always a ton of fun and the girls have a blast. If you have a creative parent or coach you could even make up a gymnastics related left/right story.
