My children are 4, 5, 11, 12, and 15... I put a few under the tree before Christmas and put the rest under the tree after midnight when I know they are fast asleep. My 12 year old told me the other day he didn't believe in Santa anymore and it broke my heart.

We don't do Santa either (my kids are 11, 9, 7, 6, 5, 3 and 1), but we don't put our presents out until they are in bed and asleep (usually by 10pm). It adds to the mystery and excitement, because they know the presents are in my room and they can't wait to see them.
Of course, presents from family and friends that we receive early, and presents that the kids buy each other are under the tree to open on Christmas eve (we just finished!)

My kids are 9,8,5, and 4 and we usually drive around looking at lights until they all fall asleep, usually around 10(we're getting ready to leave now) and we put them to bed and then wait about a half hour to make sure they're out then put out the presents from Santa, the presents from the family go under as they are bought.
Merry Christmas!

Mine are 3 and 5 and we have been putting present under the tree over the last week (as I get them wrapped). We don't believe in Santa so I don't have to worry about that.

mine are 7. Once they had been asleep for one hour I put the presents under the tree. Then my daughter woke up to go to the toilet and was wide awake for 2 hrs!!!! at the moment she is sleeping in an open plan house and is one room away from the tree. I had to sit between them till 1.30 am to make sure if she got up she stayed out of the lounge room. It is 8.30 pm now and I am buggered as the were up at 7pm to see what santa bought

My boys are 12 and 6.....of coarse the 12 year old don't think Santa's real but the 6 year old still does.
They go to bed around 10 p.m. and we wait till midnight to finish the laying out of the gifts.
Have a happy holiday

My kids still believe, what a wonderful thing. I don't put out gifts from me or Santa until they have been asleep for a few hours.

Mine are 11, 9, 4. I will have to wait up til at least midnight, my 11 year old takes forever to fall asleep and we have a tiny house. I dont want her to hear the cracking of the wrapping paper as i set them out.
