I knwo it's a little early, but I'm having a debate with DH. He always got gifts from santa that were wrapped. I always got them unwrapped. [Poll]

Finding the red tissue paper that Santa's presents were always wrapped in was one of the clues in my personal journey of discovering Santa's secret identity.

Santa's presents are wrapped in tissue paper just like mine were.

Growing up Santa was the only one that gave gifts in our house, exception of the kids giving small gifts to eachother and to our parents. Everything was always wrapped.

My cousins gifts from Santa were never wrapped and the gifts that their parents gave to them always were.

My daughter will get gifts from only Santa, her aunts and my parents, and everything will be wrapped, different paper of course.

Considering the ONLY thing my daughter asked for last year was "pink presents" yes it was all wrapped. Every last tiny item wrapped in a sparkly pink Christmas paper (TG for Target!). 

All her gifts are from Santa except for those from other family members (aunts, grandparents, etc)

Growing up, my Santa gifts were always unwrapped. DH's gifts were always wrapped. DH's logic is that unwrapping the gift is part of the fun and that makes sense to me so in our house Santa wraps in different paper than the rest of the presents!

Santa has a different wrapping paper for each kid.  This year Allison has Hello Kitty, Nathan has Snoopy.  Not sure what for Kaitlyn, she has had enough princesses!

I grew up with all presents wrapped and all from Santa but with our kids we decided to give one gift from Santa and most likely it won't be wrapped. For instance we bought DD a play kitchen from Santa that we put together and just put a big bow on it.

We always wrap the smaller stuff in a different paper than the rest. If it's something large, we'll leave it unwrapped but put a giant bow on it. For instance, this year, Grace is getting a desk for her bedroom to do her arts and crafts on, so im sure we'll build it and put a bow on it.

Depends...if its big and I know he's going to want to play with it immediately and wont wait for it to be built/set up, I will do it the night before.

The one thing they ask for from Santa, I don't usually wrap, I just put a bow on it.  stocking stuff is not wrapped either unless I get on a roll and just keep going! lol! Even chapstick got wrapped last year!

Santa gifts are always wrapped. As a matter of fact, each kid has a specific paper and all their gifts are wrapped in that. This also avoids having to use gift tags and running the risk of the kids recognizing my hand writing.

Depends. One large gift is not wrapped and set out next to the stocking. All the little things are wrapped and put into their stocking. Remaining items, if they don't fit in the stocking will likely be wrapped depending on what it is.

Growing up, Santa just put an initial on the packages for each of us kids. That's what I do.
