    Default What does Santa bring?

    In our house Santa leaves a sack for each child in their bedroom while they are asleep (they have their own material sacks and I tell them earlier in December that Santas helpers have been to pick them up while they were at school). The sacks are full of things like toiletries, stationery, make-up, books and small toys and they open them on our bed as soon as they wake up.

    Then the presents from us are downstairs under the tree - we put them there Christmas eve when they're asleep and can't wait to see the look on their faces when they come down and see the enormous pile of pressies. They'll open these after breakfast and probably once my mum and dad have arrived and it'll be total chaos but fun.

    I know some people do it this way and others say that everything is from Santa and some leave stockings on the fireplace. It's strange that even though we all do it differently, the kids don't seem to realise.

    Santa is very kind and leaves a present outside our front door on xmas eve for them, this year they have a minnie and mickey mouse from the Disney store

    Charley has a tree in her room which Santa leaves a few presents under.

    Mitchell isn't so lucky as we can't find a blue xmas tree for his room

    They have stockings hung on the fireplace and then their sacks and overspill presents in extra large gift bags

    Santa brings small gifts which are left in their sacks in their room. We have two sacks the same, one is hung up and then the other is already filled and swapped. The rest of the pressies from us and relatives are going under our tree in a minute.

    The little presents in the stocking at the end of the bed are from FC, the rest are from everyone else!

    Don't want a pretend person to get the credit for the good pressies! Ha!

    that is interesting..

    I didnt know that this is what was being done over here..
    I always assumed all presents were put under the tree by santa!!
    Or in a stocking...

    so kids get stuff into stockings from santa and rest under the tree is from parents?? Did I get that right?

    DD is too young at the moment to realise who brought what I think (she will be 2 in jan) but I want to know what I am meant to be doing anyways...

    we also get her presents from christkind...she puts it under the tree tonight...
    so DD will have christmas twice! (I want her to know both traditions)
