Another collection we have is nutcrackers. Actually, it is Christopher’s collection. He used to get one every year from his parents. Our children love getting them out each year. Christopher takes three out a night and the kids are always fascinated by them. Quinn has decided he wants to start his own collection. I think they are so special because the kids only get to see them at Christmas time. If they were out year round..I don’t think they would have the same excitement!
