I am kinda disappointed too. Toy day was my favourite holiday in New Leaf. I would smoke sure to go on throughout December and make sure I knew what all my Villagers wanted. Hopefully Nintendo listen to the reviews on it this year and improve it for next year. Here's hoping!
Also, it kinda sucks that you need red wrapping paper to make the gift pile. I don't have any and all they are selling is blue and green currently:/

There's a solution:
Talk to villager once you get recipe for gift pile, you will get 3 red wrapping papers. If you will need cardboard boxes, you may "order" them and wait until next day to be delivered or ask someone to buy it for you and will be delivered straight away.
Another tip to get cardboard boxes... they’re often found in the recycle bin in your resident services building
I just finished, although i enjoyed it cause its Toy day ofc, it was a complete disappointment that lasted for 5 minutes the villagers that were not in the plaza were all in their homes so it was a quick "hi" and "bye"
Since they did time block it i honestly understand that they wanted to simplified it, but they could have done things differently, for instance jingle could have come before like a couple of days before and we could have worked side by side to prepare everything and maybe we could have had like a small movie cut scene the day of christmas in front of a xmas tree everyone together and and and thousand of different plausible possibilities hahaha. I just really dislike that they simplified it like WAAAY too much, i feel like it should have been more balanced

I think I'm in the minority, but I love that these holiday events are short and sweet. I don't have time to sit and play this game for hours in a day and it really makes me feel like I'm not sitting here missing out because I don't have a chunk of my time to dedicate to it vs. spending time doing other things I want/need to do. I'd rather it be just this than making me deliver the presents to villagers in a specific order, resulting in me running around my island to each of them. That's just wasted time. Sure, the event is longer then, but the extra time is just travel that I have to spend annoyed as I track everyone down. I'd rather just get it over with quickly so I can put it down and then go do other things in Christmas Eve. No pressure to choose between social activities vs. spending time on Animal Crossing.

Thanks to this thread I realized that you could do gift exchanges with the villagers, so I did that for more color variations. That made me a bit happier with the event but I still wish that it was more involved

You need to deliver all the gifts from the Magic Bag to every villager and then talk to Jingle when you are done and he gives you the Gift Pile DIY and the Toy Day Sleigh.
after gifting everyone a present from the mistery bag, u have to talk to jingles one more time. Once you talk to him he will takr the bag aways and give u those two things you are looking for
I did. He gave me the sleigh but no DIY
thats strange, cehck your DIY booklet in case you might have learned it and forgot about it, just in case
Like most “glitches,” it’s actually just user error: it was in my inventory! Whoops! But yay, I was worried I missed it
I thought the red wrapping paper was going to be a customization of the wrapping paper recipe from Jingle, so I don't have any. I went to the shop and they have white and gold. Bummer since I don't have any red wrapping paper. No gift pile for me. I can go check my other island but still, it's annoying.
I was able to get a cardboard box from the recycle bin.
I don't like how we get items we want to display with so little time to be time relevant when we display them and then they require ingrediants we may or may not have to craft items you want now.
I also read people saying villagers give you red wrapping paper, but I've even gone back and talked to them all again and got nothing. So now I can't craft the gift pile without trading.
Overall this game is awesome, but it would have been even better if Nintendo had kept the little difficulty in areas like in NL vs turning into more of a smartphone app.
