Ideas for children at Christmas
There is nothing like the look on your kids' faces once they've burst tough a door covered in wrapping paper - it's exciting for them to do and great fun for you to watch.
Simply take a roll of Christmas wrapping paper and tape it to the outside of on open (That's OPEN)door frame.
Make sure all the edges are taped to the frame, you may have to tape smaller rolls together depending on the size of the door frame. Put a slit through the middle of the paper. Make sure someone is waiting on the other side with a camera to catch the magical moment when your kids burst through the paper.
