As far as I'm aware, both tunnels are closed on Christmas Day, so you'd have to go all the way down the Wirral and then over Runcorn Bridge to come all the way back up again.

Astronomical Taxi fare but I'm quite sure there are no public transport services running on the 25th.

Taxi or swimming seem to be the only ways. Unless you go over to stay with your Son instead of the other way round.

Hi, the Birkenhead tunnel is always closed Xmas day. Merseytravel are operating some free buses this Christmas but I don't have any of the routes, but it may be worth checking out.

Taxi's are not as expensive as you think. I regularly get one from my mums in Crosby to Oxton on Christmas day and it's about £25, it's only £17 on a normal day but not much difference.
