In our house, there are no presents under the tree until Christmas morning. The kids just can't stand it. When we get presents in the mail from family, I have to immediately hide them before the kids see the box. Before learning that I needed to do that, I let the kids see a box of presents from Great Grandma Graff. Tyler saw his name on a present and couldn't stand not opening it. He carried it around for 6 hours!!! He was a good boy and didn't just sneak off and open it. But it caused him a lot of anguish, just holding this mysterious wrapped gift.
6 Hours later, after many attempts to hide his gift or explain why he needed to wait until Christmas, we gave in and let him open it. He slept with his Ninja Turtle that night.
