Will DD notice the same wrapping paper from Santa and me?

Feeling very smug that I've already bought and wrapped all presents (this has never happened so early in December before).
However, I've realised all presents are wrapped in the same paper - the presents we're giving family, the presents from Santa and the presents to DD from us.
She's 6 - will she notice? My mum thinks I should rewrap her presents from Santa but I think that's a total waste of wrapping paper.
Thoughts?

My 4 year old found a small scrap of last year's santa paper recently and even after 11 months she remembered it and questioned why santa had left it in my wardrobe. So yes, we have separate rolls for the stocking and gifts from us. They never forget the things you need them to forget.

Tell her you sent the wrapping paper to Santa to use if she questions, it’s what I was told as a kid.

Definately rewrap .....my DGD was 5 last Christmas..... and passed comments on the paper🙄

"Chill"? Because 🎵 brown paper packages tied up with string 🎶 seems complicated and stressful? 😄✌🏼

@Newrunner29 I’d politely suggest reading all the comments and then decide is this really something you want to start?

I thought the same when I saw that reply 🤣 Perhaps you should just chuck the unwrapped gifts in a black bin bag..much easier 😁
