Who gives the presents in your house?

[Miss H]

I have been telling my girls that Santa is coming and bringing them lots of presents but I am finding it so strange that this man they don't know is giving them presents and Mom and Dad give nothing. We received presents from overseas today from their grandparents so how come nothing from us. So who gives the presents in your house? I was thinking maybe some from Santa and some from us?

We always got something from Mum and Dad. Generally Mum and Dad would give us the bigger present and Santa would give us something smaller. Santa also always gave us a book but the inscription always said it was from Mum and Dad - but I never knew that at the time - I suppose that in the Christmas rush you don't read the inscriptions in books (once you could read Mum's scrawl anyway!)

Most are from Santa in our house, but one each from mum & dad. This year the big one, cubby house & accessories, are coming from mum & dad because I want the credit

Santa gives our kids presents.....while their little its so nice to see the happiness and magic innocense gives

As they have gotten older and closer to the transition, we have introduced one personal item from us so that it wont hurt as much when the truth is learnt

Some from us and some from Santa. When I grew up it was the same.

Santa is stingy in our house. I like to get the credit so the good big presents come from mum and Dad and when they are older and Santa wont come to them it wont hurt as much. They get a santa sack from Santa with several smaller things in it (including a little stocking you get with chocolate or lollies in it) just need to watch it doesn't have Target or Big W or IGA imprinted into the cardboard. One of mine is old enough to question that.
