Seasonal info:

Santa Claus uses different wrapping paper then Mom and Dad use. He buys the good stuff, but after the holidays when it's marked down. He stores it in the attic where only he can find it.

Until a certain point, at least my kid doesn’t notice this subtlety…

We are a certified Santa drop off depot. Elves leave packages disguised as Amazon boxes that we store for Santa to pick up and deliver Christmas Eve easing the load on his back, and the reindeer.

So the basement laundry room becomes off limits during the season.

…or like in my house, Santa doesn’t even bother to wrap.
