Christmas Eve Box Ideas
First of all, it doesn’t have to be a fancy box…it can be a cardboard box you have lying around the house. You can draw on it if you fancy being arty, or you can wrap the box in Christmas wrapping paper – just remember to leave the lid open so you can fill it!
Maybe you have a wooden crate you want to be to use? Use it for a Christmas Eve box!
Adventure in a Box with Treasure Trails
So, let’s start off with something a little different this year. Anyone ever heard of Christmas Eve walks? Well, it’s a family tradition that is carried out by loads of families across the UK! And why not? It’s the perfect way to get outdoors with your loved ones and make some memories, and there’s no better outdoorsy walking trail than Treasure Trails!
Did you know that they are the UK’s leading provider of treasure hunts? With over 1,200 across the UK to choose from, and having entertained over 3 million people since the business was born in 2005, it’s fair to say they know a thing or two about entertaining families and children… This year, they’ve gone a step further and have created something special for kids this Christmas, the Mystery Treasure Box! A fun-packed collection of treasure hunts, games and activities, making the ultimate gift for young explorers and adventurers!! What a better way to spend their Christmas Eve!

Sweet Treats and Edible Gifts
With a wide range of different flavours, yummy treats and boxes of treats. Chocolate and sweets are the way to anyone’s heart. Like Cadbury chocolate Santas, jelly babies and chocolate coins.

A real Christmassy treat is candy cane sweets! You can’t go a Christmas without having at least one.
Hey…how about adding some “magical reindeer food” to the mix. Your kids can then put it out for Rudolf, as well as milk and cookies for Santa Claus!

One of many fun ideas and fantastic gifts for kids.
How about a colouring book and colouring pencils? With the kids so excited for Christmas Day, they may need something to calm them down, and there’s nothing like doodling in some colourful designs. Could even be seasonal designs – we have the perfect Christmas colouring pages here!
