I asked around at work and 2 of the girls brought me in a few bits and pieces, and I bought some bits to make the boxes ( I hope) appealing and useful, and I really hope the recipient likes them.
All the boxes have facecloth and soap, toothbrush and toothpaste, notepad, biros, mechanical pencils, coloured pencils, felt tip pens, sunglasses and couple of bags of sweets.
box 1 with the notelets |
box 2 |
One of these also contains a gorgeous tin with a picture of a cupcake on the front and contains 12 notelets and envelopes
box 3 |
box 4 |
And finally box 4 was designed more for a 3-6 yr old. It contains a fruit shoot bag ( these are drawstring and will be handy for keeping their spoils in ) a colouring book, a mooshi monster, a yoyo, clappers, a plasticine and shape cutter set, and a small rabbit that I won in my Persil hamper.
If you want to go join in pop over to Operation Christmas Child and see what you can do to help them out. Its not too late you have until this Friday 18th November to make your box and drop it off.
That's lovely!
ReplyDeleteI remember doing them in my teens, my mother used to ask what stuff won't I be using and I would put them in a box.
A brilliant campaign :D
Wow, they all look amazing!!! Thanks so much for joining in and the mention in your post. It is much appreciated!

This post takes me back to when I was a child and making some boxes to take into school! We always supported the campaign every year.
ReplyDeleteWe did this at our toddler group, rather than making a box each we all brought (or knittied if you were very skint like me) a couple of items and we made a few boxes to donate.
