Question

How do I fall asleep the night before Christmas Eve?

Community Answer

Try to relax by drinking a glass of warm milk before you go to bed. Avoid the temptation of playing on your phone or watching TV in bed. Eventually, you'll drift off to sleep and it will be Christmas morning!

Question

How do I avoid the temptation of opening presents early?

Community Answer

Think about what occasion they are for, and that they were given to you with the intention of being opened on Christmas Day and not before. Think about the fact the wait will be worth it. Exercising self-control is very important and satisfying and this is a good opportunity for you.

Question

How do I avoid waking up too early on Christmas?

Community Answer

If you can, try to stay up a little later the night before. Hang out with your relatives, eat great food, and maybe check out the Google Santa Tracker.

Question

What Christmas movies do you recommend?

Community Answer

I like "Frosty the Snowman", "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer", "Home Alone", "Elf", "Mickey's Christmas Carol", and "A Charlie Brown Christmas". "A Christmas Story" and "It's A Wonderful Life" are great classics, too.

Community Answer

Try to get back to sleep (one idea is listening to music). You could also read a book, play a quiet game or do other activities that might entertain yourself.

Question

How can I make a stocking without buying one?

Community Answer

If you have the fabric in the color that you like, then you can cut it in a stocking shape (draw the stocking shape on it, then cut). If you don't like sewing, you can try gluing it in place with fabric glue (which can take 5 to 15 hrs to dry). Once dried, it stays in place for years. Or you can sew it along the outline and then turn it inside out to reveal the stocking. Add a tab for hanging and it is all done. Or, just use a large, long sock (a clean one, of course!).
