Personalised Christmas eve boxes for kids
There’s no day of the year that is more exciting, or lasts as long, for little ones than the night before Christmas! If your kids are bound to be counting down the seconds until the big day, why not make December 24th even more exciting for them with one of our Personalised Christmas Eve boxes for kids − perfect for loading with little presents.
What is a Personalised Christmas Eve box?
These little boxes of holiday fun have become increasingly popular over the past few years. For those new to the idea, a Christmas Eve Box is a box filled with goodies you give to your children the day before Christmas. In the States it can also be given the day after Thanksgiving or the first day of December. Whenever you give them, before you know it it will become a yearly tradition and makes the night before Christmas something special to look forward to. From soft toys to little trinkets and chocolate, fill your personalised christmas eve boxes for kids with a lucky dip of cosy treats to help you get your children (and you) through their longest day of the year.
Christmas is never just a one-day event, and night before is just as much as fun as the main event - particularly if you have an exciting Personalised Christmas eve box for children to open. After all, who wants to wait until the big day to open presents? If anything, it helps to calm the" just let me open one present" urge while we wait another 12 hours for the big day.
This may be a relatively new tradition for you, if you're trying it for the first time you'll find our boxes truly encompass the festive spirit. We have a range of quirky, funny and festive designs and precious details will get the kids in the festive spirit. Perfect for storing Christmas treats, biscuits, presents or whatever an excited child desires. Our Personalised Christmas Eve boxes for kids can be used year on year and kept as a keepsake or memory box or, after Christmas, use the boxes for decorations. Make it an extra special gift and personalise it for free, or personalise a box for your whole family, either way it will look adorable under the tree.
Usually packed with smaller goodies such as cosy pyjamas to wake up in and matching mugs, these tantalising boxes are the perfect curtain raiser to any festive celebration, and perfect for keeping children busy while you get on with the big day preparations.
If you want something more personal and that you can re-use next year, Indiki has many boxes of all sizes that can be personalised with their names.
What should you put in it?
Once you've chosen your personalised Christmas Eve box for your children, and personalised it, what should you put inside it? When it comes to the contents of what you should be filling your personalised Christmas Eve box with, think small. You want to be able to fit lots of budget-friendly, small gifts to anticipate the beginning of festivities. Choose some filling such as tissue or shredded paper before you put the gifts inside. Box ideas for the little ones could include festive pyjamas, a Christmas film, card games, cookies, party treats, novelties, modelling clay, a gingerbread house kit, fun snaps, colouring books and tree decorations; for slightly older children books - the Night Before Christmas is a popular choice - a craft kit or cookie mix are inspired gifts to keep things calm as Father Christmas approaches. Talking of the big man - how will he get in? Santa's Key is a reassuring gift for those children who worry how he'll get in to deliver his presents without access to a chimney. Another idea is to include a door hanger with a bell and ribbon on it, which the child writes their name on - to make absolutely sure Santa gets the right door.
There are some interesting box traditions emerging: Some people keep the same one every year and pop a photo of something that characterises the year inside the lid. Others include a reassuring letter from Father Christmas reassuring a child they are on the 'good' list. Another lovely tradition is to pop in a little tree decoration each so the children can start their own collection. And pets get in on the act - of course - with dog or cat treats dressed up as "reindeer food"
Above all, the gifts don't have to be expensive for your personalised Christmas eve box for your kids - festive boxes are more about novelty. Keep it simple with a DVD to watch before going to bed the night before Christmas, a fuzzy pair of socks and a hot chocolate treat - all perfect scene setters. Once you’ve picked out your items, and the box is sealed, it’s time to wait until the 24th, put your favourite movie on and open them together.
If you want to build that fuzzy Yuletide feeling this year (and win some quiet time to prepare the turkey) a personalised Christmas Eve gift box ticks all the, er, boxes.
