My family had a rule. We were allowed to get into our stockings, and when we were little “Santa” always left one special present, unwrapped, for each of us that we could get as soon as we got up. Everything else had to wait until Dad woke up on his own, or else XD I think the noise almost always got him up earlier than he would’ve wanted, but there were no 4 am Christmas mornings in our home :P
In later years, the stockings often held books or puzzles, or they would give us a present to open the night before that would often be a board game, something to keep us occupied so they could sleep longer XD
