Christmas Eve Box
Age Group: Any age
Time: 20 min to assemble, becomes a yearly ritual
Difficulty: Easy
What You Need
● A box or bag per child
● New pyjamas
● A Christmas movie or book
● Hot chocolate sachets and mugs
● A small ornament
How To
1. Fill a box with a few small, consistent items each year - pyjamas, a hot chocolate kit, a book or movie.
2. Give it to them on Christmas Eve, before dinner or bedtime.
3. Let opening it become the official start of Christmas in your family.
4. Keep the format similar every year so it becomes recognisable and anticipated.
♥ The magic is in the repetition, not the contents. Keep the format the same and they'll ask for "the box" every year.
