Last year I made ds's a food only box each, which they got randomly on boxing day. Each item wrapped up in the box . Ds1 has m said he can't wait for this year's box so I guess I have to so it again.

Whilst I buy treat at Christmas, they are to be shared. These boxes are purely for them and can be eatwn/drank when ever they want

So far I have

Pringles.
Popcorn
Pack of 4 coke cans
Oreo cookies
Krave cereal
Nesquik in their favourite flavour.

What else can I put in that's fun or treaty

Ds2 will have a tub of nutella. (I rarely buy it through out the year as he would just use half a jar in one go)
And decaf latte packets.

Do your DC like American sweets/American cereal?

Our DC especially our youngest love them and you can buy quite alot of them from B&M if you have one near you and they're usually half the price of any where else.

Poptarts are another favourite in our house with the DC.

I think this is a brilliant idea! Much better, to me, than a Christmas Eve box which I have an inexplicable hatred of!
