What way/rules does your family have if you do kris kindle?

Do you still buy for the children in the family (nieces/nephews/cousins) as well?

What age would the children be to be part of the kris kindle?

How about Kris Kringle

summerbreeze15 · 02/11/2017 01:56

It's the same as secret santa. Each family member draws another family members name and that's who they buy for for Christmas.

Who is Kris Kringle?

I thought this was going to be a secret Santa but you have to buy each other a book to read on Kindle 😂

IamSerena · 02/11/2017 02:31

We buy for nieces and nephews and use an app for Kris Kindle for adults only. Its set so husbands/wives can't get each other.

MongerTruffle · 02/11/2017 06:48

We do it the original Central European way. Kris Kringle gives each child a small gift on the 6th December (the feast day of St Nicholas).

BurnTheBlackSuit From the thread title I thought it was an actual thing that I wasn't privy to because I don't own a kindle Blush but I think it's a good idea!

TellMeItsNotTrue · 02/11/2017 08:06

I was waiting for a back story of how you all got each other a kindle and it's been renamed in your family since that year Grin

Rebeccaslicker · 02/11/2017 08:07

Ha, I honestly thought you all bought each other a secret book.

I would LOVE that!

Secret Santa.

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 02/11/2017 08:52

I think Kris Kringle and kris kindle are both right aren't they?

Although I do like the idea of giving each other a book. Maybe set up s new tradition. Grin
