WRAPPING presents for kids is one of the most magical - and most challenging - parts of the Christmas season. It’s not just about creating those picture-perfect packages; it’s also about staying under the radar of those eagle-eyed little ones. Let’s be honest, sneaking around and hiding gifts can feel like a full-on spy mission.
But one creative single mum-of-three has shared a hack that’s shaking things up - and sparking some debate. Jenny, known as ‘justjennybenny’ on TikTok, has revealed her genius solution: she books a hotel room every year to wrap her presents in peace.
While some parents are applauding her for thinking outside the box, others aren’t quite sold on the idea. She shared a video on her TikTok page and told her 42,000 followers her mum life hack when it comes to wrapping the kids Christmas presents. Speaking to camera, she says: “I've checked into a hotel for the night to wrap all my kids' Christmas presents in peace, watching Christmas films.
“I've had room service, I had brisket, it was delicious. I've had Baileys, I've got, like, snacks. “And what I did was I brought all the presents here.”. Jenny explained that she bought all of her presents to the hotel and put them in piles. She continues: “I'm in the middle of my eldest. I've still got my little boys to do.
"And I got all the presents here, and then there are, like, supermarkets all around where I'm staying. “So then I went and bought wrapping paper, sellotape, and scissors. “I bought massive gift bags, so I can put all the presents for each child in gift bags.
