I add a Me too. It happened today and yes my toddler didn't get a gift from Father Winter.
December
Adding me as well: Adults could ask Father Winter for presents and successfully checked off tradition. Toddler could open the gifts under the tree and check off the gift-only tradition, but they didn't have an option to Ask for a Present from Father Winter and so could not fulfill their sole other tradition. Clements (Father Winter) doesn't appear to live in any of the lots in any of the worlds. Toddler has maxed communication skill. I even tried sending everyone else to bed so only the toddler was speaking to Father Winter. Still no "ask for present" option.

I'm having this issue with one of my children. The toddler was able to Ask for Present, and the mom was able to (the dad was being abducted by aliens, and he was suffering from the "no holiday" bug anyways), but not the child. I already had "Move In" and "Move Out" disabled for the Neighborhood Stories, so Father Winter wasn't living anywhere. I tried resetting him and the child multiple times, but to no avail.

The problem I'm having is that the option to "Ask For Present" has completely disappeared from interactions. I've looked everywhere under interactions in every category (Small Talk, Activites, Affection, Compliments, etc.) and it's just not there.
