I have friends who just place santas presents in the stocking or santa sack and don't wrap them. I on the other hand have always wrapped every pressie. I even go to the extent of wrapping santa's pressies in different paper that they haven't seen.
So- do you wrap the presents, or do you think that's a waste of paper? |

Presents from me are wrapped, presents from Santa go into the stockings unwrapped.

We don't wrap them here. As a kid, my Father Christmas presents weren't wrapped, and I think it would add more work for me and extra level of danger re: discovering the wrapping paper , etc. They all go in the Santa sack (or next to it if too big to fit).

Nope. wrapped ones from people.
Unwrapped go into Sant Sack. They have an awesome time digging through finding their bits and pieces. |

Some presents get wrapped and others don't.
In our household Santa fills the stockings and brings one big present. Presents in the stockings get wrapped, the big present doesn't. I'm aiming to be out in the lounge room with the camera ready when DS1 gets out of bed as Santa is bringing him an electric ride on car. He's been begging for the one in Toyworld every time he sees it, so I know it's going to be a hit with him. |

Of course! What is the fun of getting presents if there is no paper to rip off?

Yep I wrap them and do special santa paper and different name tags than the others I use (this year I did the name tags on the computer - much easier
My 2 kids only get one present from Santa each so it's really no trouble. |
