When I were a tadpole, Christmas was for everyone giving everyone one present each to each, not parents giving each child fifteen presents plus one big one. In a family of five, each of us got four presents under the tree (plus occasional books from Aunts, but those were more likely to have been book-tokens sent as a card before Christmas anyway), and the junior members of the family also got fifteen or so stocking-presents none of which cost more than a shilling or so. Well, the year we each got a slinky I think they cost more than that, but they kept all three of us out of the way for several hours so I suspect they were regarded as an investment by my mother.
Big presents were for birthdays, which were that individualâs special day; Christmas was for everyone.
(More convenient to get the bicycle in September anyway; learning to ride it in January would have been unnecessarily cold and miserable.)

Thank-you.
If someone is saving up for something expensive, then I donât mind contributing, but I never had expectations of anything big for myself.*
Mr C & I didnât exchange Christmas presents with each other, but bought what we wanted during the year, or for our Birthdays. *
My Brother was a year & 6 days older than me, so we had to share anything major, which included Birthday parties, so everything was a bit diluted anywayâŚ
- A propos Birthdays, mine is in January, and, one cold January, I received a new radiator for the hall, as the old one was knackered, & things were abit tightâŚ
Twellsy, behave yerself, & get yer Poomoanier sorted.
