After a crazy year, Christmas is finally here today, which means you’ll likely have a few kids running around the house, opening presents, and making the most of their sugar rush with pastries and cookies. For some, they will make the day feel more like a job than a day off.
With the coronavirus pandemic making the year especially longer and keeping us socially responsible by moving away socially and staying at home, we certainly all love our kids, but they’re still completely ruining Christmas (in a way we love). Actually). Don’t they know that we have a day off and that we would rather sleep? Here are seven ways kids spoil Christmas in a delicious way.
They make you wake up early
All we want to do on Christmas is sleep, but your kids won’t let you do that. They have made you get up late to make sure Santa is coming or are too eager to get up before dawn to open the presents. We have a long weekend. Why don’t they let us sleep? Or at least we deliver breakfast in bed?

Why don’t they want Santa Claus to bring things that we can buy in the stores?
Small children tend to ask Santa for weird things, which disappoints them when they can’t find him sitting under the tree. It’s hard to find a compromise between something crazy expensive or unobtainable and something that we can easily pick up at the store. You don’t want to see a disappointed kid on Christmas morning.

They always sing Christmas songs
If you think the radio station broadcasting Christmas carols 24/7 for the past four weeks is annoying, just try living with kids who constantly sing Christmas carols along with the kids. bad words. Even learning the songs at school does not prevent them from forgetting all the gifts from “The Twelve Days of Christmas”.

They can’t get you an iPhone or tablet
Why don’t these kids get their parents a useful gift like an iPhone or a tablet? Oh, because we give them their allowance and they can’t afford it. It means we are obligated to the art they made in school. But at least we’ll cherish them forever. An iPhone is outdated, but children’s school projects are unique.

Why do they watch the same Christmas specials over and over again?
We understand that A Charlie Brown Christmas is one of the best Christmas specials of all time, but do we really have to watch it every year? How many times can we see the Grinch’s heart go from “two sizes too small” to three sizes too big? Sure, it’s wonderful to see children’s eyes light up when they watch the same specials we grew up with, but they get a little tiring after a while.

Why are they always happy?
Not only do children always sing their favorite Christmas carols, but they are also generally happy all the time. They have to get serious at some point in the day. Otherwise we’ll be happy too and stay stuck that way for the rest of the day. Joy is contagious.

They love snow
These lovely kids love to play in the snow. It’s very cold outside, and all they want to do is go build a snowman. Sure, it’s a fun family activity, but the last thing we want to do on a day off is get out there and cover ourselves in white stuff. Maybe we should try to make car digging a fun family tradition.
