Advent Calendar - Other Traditions

A post for the Advent Calendar of Christmas Memories

Some other traditions from Mum and Dad's earlier Christmases that I've learned about this week:

No-one is allowed to open any presents until breakfast is over and the dishes are done (actually, that tradition is still alive and well)

Going for a walk as a family on Christmas afternoon

Having Boxing Day presents - these were small things like coins and biros, kept on or under the tree until Boxing Day when they could be opened.
