Do you open your gifts at 12am, or do you open your gifts the next morning?

We usually have a family party and stay up until 12. When we came here we didn’t understand why people waited till next morning. For us, it was always a habit and tradition to wait. We usually are told about Santa when we are young, but are told that he is fake when were about 6 years old. So we never did the American tradition to wake up in the morning call the parents and open presents.

Answer #1

i like to open them in the morning when my little brother and mom are awake.

Answer #2

Christmas morning. Although Christmas eve my family has a party and all the kids get one or two presents to open that night.

Answer #3

I used to get one present on Christmas Eve, then I’d get to open the rest of them on Christmas morning… lol but that was back when I still got presents!

Answer #6

I like to stay up, I dont think im going to ever be able not too, I love the feeling of waiting till 12 and opening the presents as soon as the clock strikes it!

Answer #7

Me too. We usually wait so impatiently staring at a nearby clock.

Answer #8

We just open them when we roll out of bed haha. When my sister and me were younger we used to get up as early as we could, but now it’s just kind of whatever, and we get up when we wake up on Christmas morning.

Answer #9

Yeah, I dont think I will ever be too old for that :)

Answer #10

We open our presents after attending church service on Christmas day, which is usually after 10.30am onwards at our extended family BBQ… Obviously this was different when we were kids as we were so excited the night before, we would be up at the crack of dawn and my brothers and I would be harassing our parents to get out of their bed so we can open our pressies. :-)

Answer #11

I open my presents at 12 am. It’s our tradition
