Light Sleepers - how does Santa deal with this?

[BhoysGirl]

okay, so my DS is a very light sleeper, we generally can't even open his door without him stirring at least, if not waking completely. So what can Santa do when it comes to present delivering time? He always put my presents on the end of my bed, but not sure that it will work for DS

Heaven help poor Santa when someone's old enough to not even go to sleep in the first place...he has a very complicated job, that's for sure. Just as well it's only 1 night a year

could Santa leave them outside the door?

Or maybe have an assistant to distract while presents were delivered - "Just wanted to give you an extra kiss good night" if they wake to the point of needing distraction

Santa may need to rethink his delivery point and leave them at the door or in the loungeroom maybe?
It is very stressful for Santa, especially as they get older and it feels like Santa is waiting up half the night until they go into a deep sleep!

Santa always left our presents under the tree, maybe say santa knows you wake up so he decided the presents were going under the tree so EVERYONE gets a surprise in the morning.

The other way to do it is wrap 1 small thing, sneak it in with a note on it and he has to 'hunt' for his other presents?
Obviously if they are little they have no idea about the 'hunt' but you help them out and they get used to this instead of having all the presents in their room?

Sorry, prob no help..

Can't wait for x-mas as DD knows what presents are (kinda) and they will be under the tree and in a stocking for her to wrap and she will have a bike sitting in the lounge waiting for her

I used to have the presents left at the foot of the bed, but with my kids they lay out their Santa sacks in front of the Christmas tree and they are filled by morning.

We used to have our stockings at the end of our beds but then suddenly one year we started leaving them in the loungeroom, I wonder if this was the reason?!

Santa always left our presents under the tree and we do the same with our kids. If I put them at the end of the bed they would wake up and want them in the middle of the night lol.

By not existing. It gets Santa out of lots of problems, that.

If I remember my poem correctly (should do as I'll be telling it to DS in a few days...)

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.

I'd be putting stockings by the fireplace to avoid this.
