For kids who like to "peek" and end up ripping their presents' wrapping, use duct tape instead! Ha!
My yearly nemesis

I consider myself to be a fair expert in gift wrapping. My mom taught me, as with so many other things, and then I apply my perfectionism from my dad lol. My wife just bags everything because she doesn't want to spend the time wrapping. But then I don't care for that because bags are WAY more expensive than a couple rolls of wrapping paper.
So I'm a cheap@$$ perfectionist expert gift wrapper... who also procrastinates and waits until the last minute lol

I don't like bags because they are really, really expensive, and the kids will just peek inside them.
Well I am glad I am not the only one who can't wrap a present to save his life. My wife bans me to the family room with a nice frosty lager every year because, she doesn't like to explain to the kids why Santa has such colourful language. See my plan is completely coming together, no wrapping duty and beer to boot. Got to love Christmas.

yep, gift bags satisfy that cultural demand to waste lots of paper in the name of 5 seconds of mystery, while still giving you the option of reusing them later in a gift if you are the recipient. We save all our gift bags and reuse them. Wrapping is a nonissue, with a few exceptions.
Or take sillyC's suggestion and tie one on before you wrap anything, or before you don't wrap anything. tis the season

If they know you at all, it's gloves. If it's toe-socks, at least they're making an effort to understand...
