With the most wonderful time of the year looming, it’s time to start thinking about festive fun treats for your little ones
One More Sleep: Christmas Eve Boxes
Choosing a Christmas Eve Box
When it comes to choosing your box, a simple cardboard option works well. At the same time, there are lots of beautiful Xmas Eve boxes with seasonal designs to make the occasion a little more special. If you want to invest in a tradition, consider a carved wooden box you can use year after year. Or why not use a cardboard box, and spend the evening decorating the outside with a true festive feel. You could paint, use stamps or cover it with stickers or glitter, the possibilities are endless. Fill your box with a mug, stocking or a sack to leave out for Father Christmas in the morning to really set the scene.
What to include in a Christmas Eve Box?
A Pair Of Pyjamas
There’s nothing more festive than dressing the whole family in a set of matching PJs. Choose your favourite design and get everyone comfy, cosy and ready for bed, just in time for Father Christmas. Pop a set into your Christmas Eve box, perhaps throw in some matching slippers, and settle down for a peaceful evening and a great night’s sleep. And don’t forget some delicious treats that you can enjoy as you settle in for the night. Choose some sweets, hot chocolate or get busy in the kitchen and whip up something delicious for dessert, and don’t forget to leave some out for Santa!
Slippers & Socks
Keep toes toasty on Christmas Eve with a cosy pair of slippers or fluffy slipper socks. From traditional styles that can be worn all year long to very merry novelty designs that will get you in the festive mood, every one of your family members will love slipping into these and watching their favourite festive film. If your Christmas Eve consists of lounging around in the house, visiting the in-laws, preparing the veg for the following day, slippers can be the perfect addition to your Christmas Eve Box, to make your day run a little bit smoother.
A Cosy Blanket
Unless you’re fortunate enough to be abroad this Christmas it’s likely that we’ll be experiencing the chilly winter weather. Bring joy and warmth to their Christmas eve wind-down with a cosy blanket which will fit perfectly inside your Christmas Eve box. We’ve got faux-fur, teddy and knitted options so you can pick one you’ll know that they’ll love, especially if you’re on the hunt for Christmas Eve Box fillers for adults.
Sweet Treats
We all love to over-indulge at Christmas and what better way to start the festive celebrations than by treating your love ones with some sweet or salty treats. Candy canes, hot chocolate, sweet treats: you name it, we’ve got it. If the recipient of the box has more of a savoury taste than don’t worry you could always opt for some nice crackers, festive crisps or nuts. Fill your box with something tasty they can enjoy with the whole family on Christmas Eve.
