Give the New Jammies the Night Before

Me too! I always made my kids flannel PJs or nightgowns every year, and let them open and wear them the night before Christmas. By making them, I got a triple bonus, saved money, customized them (picked fabric and style for each child), and I got to work with that cozy, soft flannel!

We also had this tradition.They were allowed to open one gift Christmas Eve and is was always new, freshly washed, pj's :) Christmas morning pictures looked so nice and of course the picture Christmas eve with putting out the milk and cookies for Santa!

We had the same tradition! Except after pics we all load up in the car, in our new pj's, and look at the Christmas lights and displays. My kids still talk about how funny it was to have to stop at a convenience store for a potty break all of us in jammies and slippers! lol

I used to do this! I would wrap them up, and throw them in the fireplace when the kids were busy with Grandparents!! Than they would find them and get so excited! I did it because I remember the first year my parents had a movie camera my mom was shocked because of the way we looked! From that moment on we had to be clean and dressed before entering the room on Christmas Morning!

Lovely idea and what could be better than the feel of opening gifts on Christmas morning with new jammies on :-) My parents always let my brother and I open one gift each on Christmas Eve to help keep us from sneaking a peek in the middle of the night and new jammies on that night would have been an even bigger bonus ;-)
