Advantages: Keeps the kids happy

Disadvantages: List grows longer every day

My two boys are five and seven so one of them still believes in Father Christmas but the other is not quite so sure. I hit on an excellent way for them to make their Christmas lists out.

I picked up two Index catalogues (Argos would do) and gave them each a pen and paper. I told them to list everything they would like then to go back through the list and put them in order of priority. I explained that there is no way Father Christmas will be able to bring them all but I am sure that he will do his best to bring the most important ones.

This exercise took all day originally but they have since revised their priorities several times. Once I have done my shopping for them I will announce that Father Christmas has a deadline for lists!

How I wish Father Christmas would open his wallet, or lend me his credit card!
