Hi, My brother in law is from England and something he misses is Christmas traditions, there are these little what I call poppers that you can get, that they do over there, like things we have here, it is like a toilet paper roll stuffed with toys and candy, surprises, you pull a string and they pop open.. They give to each other at Christmas, does anyone know what they are called over there and where I might be able to find them so I can give them to him for X- Mas this year, bringing England to him.. Thanks for the help..tried to explain as well as I could.

They are Christmas "crackers". I get mine at any grocery store at this time of year. You can also check out this website.

Do you mean Christmas crackers.
If so they arnt that good anymore.
Inside you get a bad juke.
A paper hat
and the gift can be anything, such as a keyring or nail clippers
