We opened gifts at home the evening before Toby's last day of school and the kids were so excited. We gave each of them a small Lego item (really--it was the Lego themed Christmas this year) and then let them go into Toby's room to play. We had set up a Lego table (their big gift from us) while Toby was at school and Norah was napping and then covered it with a quilt. Toby walked into his room after we opened gifts and he said "And you made me a fort!" We had to let him down gently and say, no, the gift wasn't a fort.... But I loved where his mind went there.
The table top flips over to a flat surface for doing other projects, so it doesn't have to be all Legos all the time, but it is anyway.
The kids had picked out a gift for each other earlier in the month, and it was really fun to see them exchange gifts. Toby got Norah some pink Legos. Norah picked out a paper airplane kit for Toby.
