To Wrap Or Not to Wrap?

Wrap!

[AnnabelsMummy]

we wrap everything..
even if it's too big or we know what it is, it still gets wrapped - although somethings only have one side wrapped so you still have to pull it off!!

it's more fun that way!! we LOVE unwrapping the pressies!! especially ones from father christmas..
oh and all the babies in my family are more intrested in unwrapping the presents than they are in the actual presents themselves
lol.
it's lazyyy not to wrap them uppp!! you can get wrapping paper really cheap now! i've already seen some for like 25p for a roll, just takes a bit of hunting..
or if it's way to expensive, my friend's mum used to use newspaper when she ran out

I say always wrap all presents it seems much more fun to not know what the gift is and to sit there unwrapping it

Everything gets wrapped! Everything comes from Santa too

My parents used to wrap everything too, and they were put in a pillowcase at the end of our beds. In this house Santa leaves everything under the tree!

I always wrap presents, christmas birthdays whatever. I can not get over the fact that a present could be a present without it being wrapped!!!!
So even if they are small, I do wrap, they love unwrapping, usually the wrapping paper is the best present they have had if they are really small. But Rayan is 2 and he knows if it is wrapped it is a present. With birthdays he even helps me wrap other people's presents, loves it!
But I guess everyone goes for what they like best.

Oooh, and saving on wrapping paper is not very necessary over here (Holland) as most shops wrap your presents for you. They usually even ask if it is a present and in November-december even for what occasion. Oh, also round mother's day and things like that. So people who can not wrap have no troubles over here! My husband loves it, says it is not so common in England as here. I never knew it could be different, am so used to people asking if it is a present if you have bought something!!!

i wrap everything, i was going to wrap Lillys bike this year to but decided not to now, that will be the only thing not wrapped though x

 

[oOKayOo]

Wrap everything! Only because its more of a surprise , rather then running into all these toys on show and thinking 'woah! .. where do i start!' Plus kiddies usually get fed up of unwrapping so you can save some for later on in the day when the excitment dies down alittle

 

[Laura2919]

I dont wrap until I have finished all presents because I forget who I have got and then I end up with more than I should lol! So I wait! I wrap everything though!

Santa will be wrapping Edward's in Winnie the Pooh paper, which is a tradition from when I was little. Mine are still wrapped in pooh paper now from my mum

Santa gifts are never wrapped in our house, they are all set up for them to see when they come out. Santa usually brings the bigger things, like bikes and train sets. One year he redid their rooms

 

[Rhi_Rhi1]

basically its wrapped unless it doesn't fit! lol like a drum kit or something like that ahha x

 

[sabby52]

We dont wrap gifts from Santa, they are set up so that Dec will see them when he enters the room.

 

[Kelz22]

Not sure what we are doing yet but I dont see any point in wrapping LOs pressies untill hes abit older.xxx

Babies and toddlers are often more interested in the wrapping paper than the present, so yes.

 

[QuintinsMommy]

yes ! its the best part, when i was old enough not to believe in santa, my mom would ask me to help her warp everything xmas eve, it was so fun

 

[snowy-willow]

When I was a kid I was scared of santa so he wasn't allowed to enter the house so my dad had to wait up for him and santa had to come to the front door!

From santa we had 1 big present and our stockings - nothing from santa was wrapped up. The big presents I remember were things like bike, sylvanian families windmill, sylvanian families house made by my dad, my cooker made by my dad etc. When my dad went to bed we would bring our stocking and big present (unless it was something like a bike) to our rooms - although due to my fear of santa I would often sleep in my brothers room christmas eve and we would stay awake until my dad bought our presents up (we would pretend to be asleep!). As soon as we heard his bedroom door close we would open our stockings and play with our big present for a little while before going to sleep.

I have always wrapped santa gifts, in a totally different paper to the one I use (& as my Son got older, if I had any 'santa' wrap left, I would have to throw it away, in case he spotted it! )

My Boys both love, love, love unwrapping the gifts they find in their stockings from santa....& I love being awoken by the rustling of the paper....

Ditto to all of that....
We also have special santa gift tags and pens and we get a neighbour to write out the tags lol
