Guess I dont feel bad for asking for Easter Monday paid because I close for about 10 days around Christmas UNPAID. That means parents don't have to ay me Christmas Eve, Christmas, Boxing day or New Year's so they get a break.

This year I closed from Dec 23-Jan 3rd unpaid. I think most parents are off during that time too. It is too complicated to open for a day then clsoe again for a few then open again because the holidays come right after each other for Christmas and then New Years.
