Does your family have Christmas stockings? What do you put in them?
We never really had them until one year DD1 made some "lovely" ones out of paper & crayons (LOL). Since then the tradition has continued & the kids know they can dive into their stockings before we get up - it keeps them happy while I'm waking up (which can take a while thanks to my sleep disorder). I usually chuck in a few of those chocolate coins, a Christmassy cookie/lollipop, and a couple of small things like those puzzles with the balls in them, a tiny book, something that they can "do" straight away. Last year MIL knitted some lovely personalised ones so they will go up this year, and I don't want to give away any secrets but there might be LEGO involved this year!
