As a young girl, my great aunt used to put "tree presents" in her tree for us to find. They were utter tat, but brilliant and it was the best part of Christmas, laughing at each others fortune telling fish, or silly purse that broke as you opened it, always with a pound in.
That was for all of "us kids" which numbered around 12 (brothers sisters cousins). I think, looking back, it was so many children all together enjoying the silliness that felt so magical.
I want to recreate something this year as a throwback to this, but the recipients (who will all remember auntie's tree presents) are my immediate family.
So for, DS11, DM 60, DF 60, DH 40 and DNan80, what would you get?
So far I've got DM a little handbag diary with an ostrich on the front, and DS a little game where you wear a velcro headband and try and catch little fluffy balls that are flung at you.
I'm a bit stumped, I know I can't replicate how it was, but any suggestions to get a little of the magic and silliness, greatly received.
