You’re better off waiting until your kids are over a certain age first, but they’re sure to enjoy it once they’re playing. Setting up is a breeze, and it only takes a few minutes. You’ll just need to put a poster of Rudolph up and let someone have their way with the tail. Maybe even toss in a few balloons to give everything an extra pop.

Add some festive tunes, wrap it in your favourite Christmas paper, and let the unwrapping frenzy begin!
