My sister, my brother and me in the late 60s.
When we were kids we always got a new shorts and t shirt set for Christmas, how about you?
Or if you live in the northern hemisphere did you have an item of clothing that became a traditional gift?




In the northern hemisphere, Christmas jammies are often given. My grandmother would let us open one gift on Christmas Eve, and it was often a new set of winter jammies, new robe and slippers. Flannel, or long sleeve nightgowns...and all matching.
ReplyDeletea brand new dress! It always had pretty lace at the cuffs and skirt hem :-)

Nightgowns. Flannel nightgowns opened on Christmas eve. I remember that warm cozy feel!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, we did too! New shorts and a new blouse or t-shirt, these were the "good" ones (local shopping say but not "town"!) and the old good ones slipped down to everyday.
ReplyDeleteI can't remember so probably not, but my children always get a new tshirt and shorts. The only time I buy any of the "branded" stuff.
