Christmas Eve present

[leeanne]

Can't believe it's almost here!

Anyhow, do you let your kids choose what gift to open on Christmas Eve?

I have every year but this year I want them to specifically open one gift and that is their new bedding. Nothing like sleeping on new bedding in new jamies and dreaming of Santa. Some kids may not like to open such a thing on Christmas Eve, but I think my kids are really gonna love their bedding.

 

[hopeandpray]

as kids we always opened our jammies on christmas eve, not sure why but we loved it lol became a tradition and we still do it today

I dont let them pick their own for the simple fact what if they pick a big one !!!! lol I dont even get to pick my own on Christmas eve OH picks mine and I pick his

[Elli21]

[nessajane]

I wont be wrapping them but tyler has new Pj's to wear xmas eve

 

[DizzyMoo]

This is one thing i've never gotten my head around, Why open a present xmas eve? Doesn't it defeat the object of xmas day to open everything & make 1 big mess lol

I don't like josh open anything xmas eve & i wont with jax either, Our routine is virtually the same as any other night really apart from we'll be putting out santas food, reindeer food & sprinkling magic reindeer dust outside etc , bath & xmas story then bed to poss watch a xmas dvd depending how tired he is. Then i'll wrap anything not already done & i'll arrange it all on the settee like a nutjob lol

 

[Snowball]

I don't do Christmas eve, it's too much brain ache to think up why Santa would come the night before too

 

[Tasha]

I do Pj's and a book for them. They are from us not Father Christmas.

well its nice to give kids a little something to maybe help them to sleep and makes it all that bit more exciting.. we used to get pj's every xmas eve and it was just lovely to get into bed xmas eve to clean new pj's all excited for the next day
not really letting them open a present that sud be opened xmas day just a little xtra thing..
