mate has given ds3 an advent calendar with pockets in it to fill

[TheHighwayCod]

will use for all three i think

what do you put in them
minimal hassle plase

I've done presents in the past, but too much hassle - just chocolate coins for us this year, I think.

box of celebrations or miniature heroes - one in each and they can take it in turns

werhters orginals?

I do alternate days with presents and chocolate so one day it will be a little wooden spinning top or similar the next a minature dairy milk or the like.

Yeah, I put some celebrations of miniature heroes.

How about a 10p or 20p if you son't want to give them sweets

We have wooden advent calendars and just put a small sweet in each box, you could even get away with smarties in a few of them.

jelly tots

10p

i am making one for my dd. planning some choc cois, hair clips, stickers, rubber. v v v tiny little things. but wrapped, obv! infcat, gonna get started

great idea

t aall

will be an excercise in self restraint for all of them

or a friend who buys 25 little presetns, but I just could not be bothered with that.

Am stuck with what to do for ds's box. For dd last year I put in novelty rubbers (by that I mean the eraser kind ), some sweets/chocolates, hair accesories, small toys , I.O.U notes for a trip to the cinema or such like.

chocolate buttons?

Mini mars bars/milky ways?

Grapes?

here?

Am feeling smug this year as my MIL has presented me with an enormous bag full of hair clips, stickers, bracelets, tree ornaments etc etc so I don't have to buy anything!!

i dont want to spend a lot
we haev stocings for all that

but this stuff looks cute

get your kids to do chores and put money IN the pockets -t hen donate to charity a childrens charity children in need perhaps

lol
yes worthy but dull

Out of interest, this sounds great. Where can I get one of these things?

Sorry to hijack your thread.

My ideas: Put mainly small sweets in but the occasional bigger present. That way there is more suspense for the children.

i dont know
mine si green

my parents got one for dd from Cost Co.. M & S have a nice green pyramid one

mate has got stuff before from that card thing
who seels cards to raise money for chrity?
