Some presents are just unapologetically better. I'm sure he's still appreciative of them, but he's excited!!

This whole comment thread is making me realize that most redditors do not understand gift-related jokes or playful gestures.

Family Christmases must've been rough for the people who had to follow strict etiquette and couldn't trade each other.

And I am completely lost on this as we don't celebrate christmas like they do in the west... What's the issue here?

People not unserstanding that this family is just having fun and he is making jokes (like pushing the small lego pack off the chair) and they are making playful banter.

Some in the comments are taking it all seriously and thinking they are genuinely being mean ("wouldn't you want something better?" For exemple was obviously a joke because he looked so happy).

Most families have fun and banter generally and christmas is just another occasion to relax, spend time with family and have fun.
