Not sure whether to do it Christmas Eve- for a 5 1/2 year old?

well last year, it took my OH about 3 hours to build the playmobil hospital, so I would recommend putting them together beforehand if you can!

Yes, I'm building my ds's Dragon Dungeon in advance. In the past I haven't done this, and my dd who is 6 has enjoyed helping to put the sets together, but ds is only going to be 4 at Christmas and I think it will be more fun for him to have it ready to play with on Christmas morning.

Ah, it's a Christmas tradition in our house for Mummy to spend two hours on Xmas Day assembling the Playmobil, assisted by a large bucket glass of champagne :)

Do it beforehand -it'll be easier than trying to build it with the DCs help whilst simultaneously trying to prep sprouts, stuff a turkey, find the right batteries for some annoyingly loud toy and retrieve some vital part of another toy that's been chucked out with the recycling.
