Wow RC that is a whole stage further!

We quite like cutting the tapes and wires on the day as that's all part of the fun for us.

Oh wow I can't believe some families put all the stickers on for their kids! Mine love doing that.... maybe we're weird!

This was me as a kid, I loved putting it all together and sticking the stickers on..

I remember getting a Lundby Dolls house with all the furniture one year and my mum opened it all, threw away the boxes and set it up ready for me on Christmas morning.
It’s the only thing I can’t actually remember receiving on Christmas morning, can remember playing with it and that I absolutely loved it, but just not the actual excitement on receiving it!

If it had been left in the boxes for me to open I think I would’ve remembered it a whole lot more. (But truth is I think mum really wanted to have first dibs on it!😀)

But in answer to your question op, I left them in the boxes which adds to the excitement!

Boxes

Apart from the year DD got a toy kitchen and accessories
I put a large sheet over that one for her to pull off.

…psychopath would inbox them!?

I thought it made perfect sense when they were little so they didn't have to wait for us to struggle to get fiddly bastard things out of boxes, then put batteries in. Some toys were still in left boxes but if it was easier in the day to have them ready then we did that.

Psychopath Hmm
