We Speedwells can't be the only family in Britain who don't put gifts in stockings.

Can we?

i don’t remember having them as kids and I haven’t done any for my child to date

Nope we never had stockings growing up and I never did them for my kids either.

Never had one in my life!

My kids do though.

Not that it matters, everyone does their own thing and has their own traditions - I suppose I might be curious to ask if you have ever “done” Santa / Father Christmasin any way? (As that’s who brings the stockings in my tradition, and still does even in my thirties 😉)

We never had them as kids but I do them for mine.

I didn't have a stocking growing up either!

Nope we don't do stockings either! Although strangely enough DC2 has asked this year if we can despite the fact they are 9 and 13 and have never had them before!
