I am sooo surprised extra nosey DD5 has not found her presents. We have them hidden in our wardrobe and airing cupboard at the top of the house covered by sheets etc. She likes to go up and play there and try on my shoes - if she only knew.......

We have wrapped our - hidden them in a suit case, locked the suitcase and hidden the key and also hidden the suitcase.

She's definatly not catching me out this year! Luckily none of her presents this year are too big!

gosh SW - don't lose the key

Under the tree, but inaccessable. The tree is in a corner and the presents are between it and the wall. The only ones DCs can see are addressed to family/friends etc and there is a distracting pile consisting of a huge tin of Danish Cookies, ginormous tin of Roses plus various other chocolatey bits that DCs find far more interesting to prod than wrapped pressies.

In a holdall bag under stairs kids think it is dads footie kit lol. Bexs bike is at my mums house.

in the cupboard under the stairs dd1 knows and doesn't want to lok, they aren't wrapped yet, still in carrier bags.
she accidently saw one of her presents when I brought it in with the shopping and was most upset so she woujld never go looking
However I have a feeling that dd2 won't be at all like that when she's older, we'll have to get a lock on the door I reckon

TinsellyRhino · 20/12/2006 17:47

oh and her bike in in the boiler room whcih she can't go in unsupervised cause of the tools in there

All in the loft!
Ive been up and down the ladder lots of times taking some out to wrap and putting wrapped ones back in! Last ones are coming out for wrapping tonight and i then won't need to go in the loft again until sunday night !

In our wardrobes covered in old clothes and stuff. Plus the office wardrobe and some small things in my drawers. Oh and some at the back of another cupboard in our bedroom. Our bedroom has a hook lock on the outside so I keep it locked when they are roaming the house. They aren't allowed to muck about in the office either so should be safe with the other wardrobe.

locked in the cupboard under the stairs. And I've lost the key! ds managed to get in there the other day somehow looking for nappies and it was really strange that he didn't comment at all. Just clsoed the cupbaord again.

Before they were wrapped they were hidden in a cupboard in my bedroom but now they are in a big cardboard box in the corner of my room and a large black bin liner, 3 of ds2's presents are still at MIL's waiting to be wrapped up (too big to fit in my cupboard. Ds1 (9) has sen the box but as there is a few other boxes near it that are waiting to go into storage he thinks it is one of them

Dh wouldnt dare look for his, it would be more than his lifes worth, its hard enough finding things to suprise him with so if i discovered he had gone looking for them i would go mad

Mainly in the loft but some are in my Nannas box room
PIA wrapping them and putting them back up though.
