I was watching one of my favorite news programs yesterday morning and they were talking about the different places in your home that you can hide gifts that kids won’t look in or under. Here is a list of some ideas on where you can hide your gifts that I thought I would share.
Top 10 Places To Hide Christmas Gifts
- Zip up suit bag
- Trash bag under bed
- Ice chest/cooler
- Luggage
- Christmas decoration box
- Trunk of your car
- Attic
- Change name on present
- Relative’s closet
- Junk box
These are just 10 ideas of spots you can use to hide your gifts. If you have children, I am sure that you have some ideas that you might want to share with my readers too!
Feel free to share with us where you hide your Christmas gifts by leaving me a comment below.

My closet is always full of brown boxes. So I hide the gifts in those. LOL. One day they’ll catch on closer to Christmas. But right now they don’t question it. I have hidden gifts at my parent’s house (5 minutes away) in the past.

wow, those presents look amazing. Mine never look that pretty, lol.
I never thought of the cooler thing! My oldest is 7 so she doesn’t look for presents still since she still believes in Santa. I’ll be sure to remember these places in a few years!
Cat Davis says
Those are great ideas. We always send the gifts to my mom’s house or hubby’s work closet at the office. The kids are too curious here.
Melinda says
i put them in the kid’s own closets LOL they can’t reach the top shelf if I put them in a bin 🙂

Changing the name on the present made me laugh! I’ve done the luggage thing!

I love the idea of changing the name on the gifts. You could simply label every person’s gifts as belong to someone else and they’d never know – a great way to throw off snoops! Brilliant!

Where do you store your cleaning supplies? That seems like a place where kids would never look voluntarily – LOL! (I swear I read a book or something where the parents did that..hahaha!)
No kids here so I just keep all mine in a big plastic tub labeled “GIFTS, Don’t Look” so my fiance won’t open it on accident while looking for something else, haha!
Theresa says
I keep them in my closet up high. It works pretty well since my kids can’t climb (too high up) and my older girls don’t sneek peeks anymore! 🙂
Penelope says
I LOVE these ideas!!

Love these suggestions.
I always hid them in the laundry room under my pile of clothes that needed to be ironed. I KNEW my kids AND hubby would NEVER look there, they never even went IN that room. HaHa
