Did you know that in some European countries, Santa actually comes to see you?
There's a knock on the door sometime during the day, Santa comes in and gives everyone presents from his sack (don't) and then goes off to fly away to the next house. It's usually the man of the house who says something like "I'm just going out for milk" then comes back a couple of minutes later dressed as Santa. You can also get Santa's for hire.
I would love to make this a tradition but husband thinks it's weird. He looked at me like I had 3 heads when I brought it up. I don't think I can swing the santa look, barely breaking 5ft. How do I convince him?
Also, something putting me off is that there was a thread last year about someone hiring a Santa and some elves to come over for a chat and to give a gift some time before the big day but due to restrictions could only stay outside. People thought it unfair that other kids would be able to see Santa but not get any attention from him etc. Obviously, the same thing applies if "Santa" was observed entering our house. "why is Santa going to see them but not us?" sort of thing.
Do you think it would be unfair on other kids if I managed to convince DH to do this?
