My DS2 was trying to explain to the GDs that there won't be so many presents this Christmas. (Like many, many self-employed people they have really suffered from having their business closed down during lockdown and related restrictions). GD1, aged 10, understood and said not to worry, just having one present would be fine. GD2, aged 6, agreed because, as she explained "it will be ok, because Santa could bring the rest".

Oh bless her , its hard for little ones to understand especially when they still believe in Santa
Im not fat just 6ft too small -
Good old Santa!!
I think with younger children quantity wins over quality on Christmas morning. Santa may have to have a trip to Poundland or the like

The simplistic way to solve this, is to have only the stocking comes from Santa.What is life if full of care we have no time to stand and stareComment

The little ones don't understand,especially those that believe in Santa.Sometimes I forget to like posts,but that doesn't mean I don't like them.Comment

Plant - that's what we used to do when our boys were little. A stocking at the end of the bed, and everything else under the tree to be opened after breakfast.Originally posted by Plantaholic View Post

I expect Santa doesn’t have so many toys in his sleigh because the elves are socially distancing. Several of them are probably still being furloughed. 🎅🏼Always face the sunshine and the shadows fall behind you.Comment
