7 Christmas Eve Box Ideas for Kids

Christmas Eve Box Idea for Young Kids

I’m loving this trend of doing a Christmas Eve box for the kids.  I’ve seen lots cute ideas on Pinterest with everything from extravagant gifts and activities to simple ones.  I’ve even seen the idea of leaving a “santa bag” filled with goodies on the doorstep for the kids to go through.  Here are some cute Christmas Eve gift idea to fill your box or bag with:

Hallmark’s Dance Like an Elf (Walmart)

Dance Like an Elf is a fun little toy that gets the whole family up and moving.  The toy shouts out things like “drink some hot chocolate” or “do the Santa shuffle” and gives you a fun beat to boogie to.  The music volume can be adjusted to two different levels with the loudest setting being pretty loud.  Have a family dance party on Christmas eve and then enjoy it all year long!

Hallmark – Find Me, Santa! Snowflake (Hallmark)

Write your child’s name on this light-up snowflake an hang it in a window so Santa knows where to drop the presents off.  The color changing LED lights are so dreamy looking and stay lit for four hours.  This snowflake comes with a few different name tags so you can swap them out, if needed.  It also comes with a ribbon for hanging.  What better way to get the kids excited than a glowing snowflake?

Hostess Donettes, Ho Hos and SnoBalls

Christmas Eve is all about junk food, right?  Get the kiddos sugared up with their favorite Hostess Donettes, Ho Hos and SnoBalls.  Serve up some hot cocoa to go with these sweet treats, turn on a Christmas movie and you’re set.

The Rockee Toothbrush from VioLife (www.violife.com)

After all that sugar a good toothbrush is much needed.  This fun little reindeer Rockee toothbrush from VioLife is sure to get kids excited to brush their teeth.  Dentists have suggested that selecting a toothbrush that looks like a cartoon character will make brush-time more fun. “By making tooth brushing time enjoyable, it’s no longer something children are forced to do, but want to do,” says Julie Cho, DMD. “Incorporating fun cartoon characters and bright colors on appropriately sized toothbrushes for children encourages them to create healthy hygiene habits.” The Rockee toothbrush from Violife was created with both parents and kids in mind. Kids will look forward to brushing their teeth and parents will look forward to not having to ask. Available in a variety of cute animals and bright colors, the Rockee is designed to always stand upright – it rocks, wobbles and spins, but never tips over. With the unique rocking design, parents will no longer have to deal with messy, toothpaste covered counter tops or replacing toothbrushes that are dropped on the floor. Great for kids of all ages, the Rockee features an oval brush head with soft bristles and a comfortable, ergonomically designed handle that fits easily into small hands. Since it always stands upright, the Rockee dries easily and kids won’t have to remember to put away their toothbrush in a holder. Visit www.violife.com to shop!
