Hello
We're going away at Christmas to be with 2 other families. Our family ideas of how Santa delivers presents are quite different, and I just wondered what other family traditions are. My childhood Christmases obviously seemed 'right' to me as I grew up so I'm finding it quite hard to think that my DS's (age 3) Christmas this year might have to be different because we're spending it with a family whose Christmas traditions are different. I'm pathetic...I know. Age-old problem eh?
Anyway, in our family, Santa delivered one stocking, one pillow-case with a few bits and bobs in it (a game, something crafty, something chocolatey, maybe something useful like a duvet set, and some books) and then one main present. We were allowed to open the stocking and the pillow-case first thing in the morning as long as the rest of the family were awake and present.
What are everyone else's experiences? I'm not looking to go 'nurr nurr nurr nurr I'm right' btw. I'm just curious.
