It’s the day before Christmas, and as well as all the cooking, wrapping, planning and preparing you have to do - you also have the kids to occupy.
But don’t worry - we’ve rounded up some easy, quick activities for children on Christmas Eve.
We’ve scoured Mumsnet and gathered stories from parents to find out how other mums and dads spend the day.
By no means would you be able to fit all these activities into one day, but pick and choose what works best for you.
