EVERYTHING gets wrapped here. I guess maybe someday that might change if it's too big to wrap, hasn't been an issue yet.

When I was a kid, my Mom never wrapped anything. The only gifts I got to unwrap (and enjoy the excitement along with it) was from my Grandma. So I made a promise to myself to always wrap my kids' gifts. Though I did not wrap the clothes box for oldest dd, but it is a decorative one. I couldn't as I ran out of tape.

I wrap EVERYTHING! Even the stocking stuffers.

 

I think getting the presents is only half the fun. Seeing the tree first thing in the morning with all those presents under it, and unwrapping them, makes up the other half.

 

I will never forget the memories I have of Christmas morning. It was the best!

I want my kids to have those same memories.

Mostly wrapped, but this year, He's bringing bikes, and I dont think he can wrap those. :)

Sure he can wrap that too. they sell those bike bags, i use them for a lot of things, i make small presents look like bigs ones with those bags, it is fun to stuff them with paper and watch them digging around to find out what is the bottom of the bag

 

By they way i wrap everthing

Some of both.

 

 

DS 3 is getting a Bike this year and his older brother is getting a telescope. I also have two sets of golf clubs and an easel (DD5) that'll be set up, along with The Rose Petal Cottage (DD2) and some of the accessories.

 

 

As for my wife...they're wrapped. Badly, mind you....but they're wrapped.

Santa doesn't wrap at my house. Our kids get up earlier than DH and I do so they get to go play with whatever Santa left (unwrapped toys) until we get up. Besides, I don't think Santa likes to wrap... ;)

Everything is wrapped in our house- except if it were too big. Like in the past a bike- and then a dirt bike. Now mom love's ribbon's and bow's and decorating and coordinating the tags/paper/ect. Santa and the elves don't have time for that- so they are just wrapped w/ no ribbon's or bow's in our house. Also, they never had nametags either. Just in a pile w/ all 1 type of santa paper (guess it helped to only have 1 child).

Everything gets wrapped except each kid gets 1 big gift that is not wrapped (this year Alexis is getting butterscotch, Austin is getting a ride on john deere tractor and Rylee is getting the rose petal cottage with accessories). The big items are all set up and ready for them to play with when they come down the stairs.

When my kids asked about the paper...I told them santa doesnt have time to wrap. He brings the toys and I get up and wrap them to make the surprise bigger! They agree they prefer to unwrap their gifts so they like that I take the time to do that for them!

Unless the item is large, everything gets wrapped. Things from Santa are in Santa themed paper with special Santa gift tags. Couple years ago DS 12 noticed that some of the family gifts were wrapped in the previous year "Santa" paper... had to quickly explain that when Santa has extra paper he leaves it for moms & dads to use so that nothing goes to waste... now I'm much more careful!! ;)
