The older the children get, the more they want to receive money rather than gifts for Christmas. This was indeed shown in a study conducted among French parents of children in middle and high school in 2019. From the age of 10 to 12, 70 percent of children asked for cash, a proportion that increases with age: 82 percent for 13-14 year olds, 86 percent for 15-16 year olds, and 92 percent for 17-18 year olds.
