[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are much older now. High school, college, and adults.  We always had Christmas in our own home. It was important to me that the kids went to sleep in their own beds and woke up Christmas morning to Santa in their home. Some years we left to visit family Christmas Day after Santa. But we are always home Christmas Eve and Christmas morning.[/quote]

Yes OP.

Santa at home in their own beds.

Then travel to see grandparents between Christmas and new year.

3-6 year old Chriatmas is magical.  What your parents are wanting sounds like your kid's holiday will suck (no offense).

Santa comes one time to your house.

Santa does not come to the grandparents houses. Those gifts are from your parents.[/quote]

Another +1

I'm also a child of divorce. I get your impulses, but this is the right idea from your kids' perspective. Happily, it's also easiest for you (logistically if not emotionally). We bought a house when my oldest was just 3 and set about creating our own traditions from there. We will host anyone on Christmas morning, and drive to Christmas dinner, but Christmas Eve and Christmas morning are at home. Santa has been known to follow little children to different places if they happen to be traveling one year, but he only comes once.[/quote]
