Im taking kids on holiday over Christmas
its a suprise though
my question is would you still buy presents? We will be away until day after boxing day.
obviously il be limited on space in cases for anything big and will have to hide stuff.
kids are 13.5 and almost 10 and don’t believe in Father Christmas anymore

Thanks yes i was thinking the same some small things to open and give them euros to spend whilst away.
they dont need anything as they have everything already but their father says the holiday is their present and not to get anything

I'd still buy some gifts. Especially if you're not going somewhere kid-orientated and the holiday is more of a present to yourself.

Hated holidays when I was a kid lol.

I know they’re going on holiday but I would still get them presents.

I would,even just a stocking and maybe 1 or 2 small presents to open on the day and then they could have the rest of their presents at home.

I voted yabu, but I meant if you don't buy presents.
