We open ours on Christmas Day, well that's when we can get the two
older children to get out of bed to come downstairs.. It's me that gets up at a silly time
in the morning waiting for them..
Merry Christmas to all...
Ha Ha Tink - I always have to wait for my kids too. Even when the 26 year old was a very little girl - we could never get her up!
Well, we open ours Christmas morning as a family. On Christmas Eve we have extended family over for a buffet dinner and open gifts from them at that time. I still buy my two daughters new pajamas to be opened on Christmas Eve!

We open one on Christmas Eve (been a tradition for years) and leave the rest until the day.
My daughter gets to open her gifts Christmas morning. Then, we have a big family gathering at my parents' home, where more gifts are opened. Finally, my wife and I open gifts from each other on Christmas night. A whole day of gifts makes for a lot of fun!
My DH likes opening gifts after midnight mass, but I prefer waiting till morning. So we do both.
Joy to You!
Open gifts New Years Eve, thats the custom, here, in Greece.

We open them Christmas morning but save one for New Year's Day.
Merry Snowy Christmas
Love & Peace to the World
We let our son open 1 gift Christmas eve because I tell him that its from the elves who came by to check on him and make sure he's being a good boy.
My daughters have always opened one gift each on Christmas Eve. And it is always a new pair of PJs. They are 26 and 17 now and they still want those PJs!
