What's your favourite sound at Christmas? I love my son's moment of silence when he sees what he's been given!

Mine was hearing our 5 children on Christmas morning at 5:00am sneak up to our bedroom. You go and wake them!!! NO.. you go and wake them!! No... you go...... Then the littlest would get shoved into our bedroom, by her bigger sisters, and sing out "I'TS CHRISTMAS" My wife and i would giggle, and pretend to be asleep. Tony Oz

"Oh, how did you know I wanted that"! (from Daughter!) and all the lovely chatter round the table, and definitely the crackers, and the sound of fingers rustling, in the big sweet-tin, as I pick out those lovely strawberry and orange creams! :)

Mine's "Mummy, Daddy, can I pleeeease get up now?" But the best one was when son was just 2, we put the tree up on Christmas Eve, and he came down on Christmas morning and said " Ohhh a twee!" and then he cried! got it all on film for when he's older!!! lol and then he saw his "Mountain Bike" couldn't even reach the pedals.
