My kids will receive 1 bitcoin each this Christmas. They are all students and have not got any bitcoins so far. I wouldn't normally give out such a huge chunk of money to them but I believe that bitcoin will be a major story in their lives so I want them to be involved.

Nice thought and hopefully it'll be a nice investment too. Just makes sure they understand it and it's value.

i will....and I've made a backup copy of the paper wallets in case they throw them out with the Christmas wrapping paper!

Definitely a good idea, and if they misbehave you can steal it back if they haven't already spent it  Cheesy.

Sadly everyone I know would lose their private key or post it on Instagram

Haha, I'm sure somebody has already posted their private QR code online before.
