Where are ur kids when ur wrapping? - Page 3

I will be doing the wrapping when they are in bed, whilst watching a christmas film.
Then they are stored in a big cupboard in our bedroom until xmas eve (we made the mistake of putting them out earlier last year and lots of pressies had finger shaped holes in the wrapping from Amelia!

)

I always wait till they've gone to bed then will wrap them in the front room, DD1 has came down a couple of times but luckily thay have already been wrapped so has know idea who there for, I'm sure shes trying to catch me out.

They're in bed but we have to wait a long time and really sneak about because dd1 has ears like a bat and would hear everything, hear the draw open for the scissors and every little piece of sellotape being peeled.
If they spot any presents we tell them that we're helping Santa and he'll come and collect them for checking (its only dd2 that believes this now though)

we dont wrap Sant presents so there really isnt a lot of wrapping to be done in my house, but the little that needs done is done while Dec is either at school or in bed

cherryglitter · Dec 9th, 2011, 13:34 PM

Usually when she's in bed, however this year I have booked a day off each week when she is at nursery this month to get some rest, so I'll do it then.

We are moving house in the new year and the new house has a loft ladder so at least next year I'll be able to get up there easily to hide them away

I like the idea that Santa's presents don't get wrapped. I have been dreading tackling that bloody Piglet with wrapping paper
