>>10140862Toys were certainly the main draw, up until I got older. But there was plenty else to like. School was always a lot more laid back and fun for a couple weeks, and I still like Christmas-y vibes on their own.
>>10140940I had an older brother who made me skeptical of Santa from a young age, but I still wanted to believe in him for a time. And my parents would even go through the trouble of having the plate of eaten cookies with snow-prints on the carpet and shit. After a while it became a fun joke, even did something similar for the Easter bunny.
