Gifts for Advent Calender

6 replies

Bbq1 · 14/11/2020 12:21

I have always done my ds a Gift/Activity Calender. He's 15 now so it's more difficult but he really enjoys it. Outdoor Activities are usually things like ice skating, indoors maybe a Christmas film, gifts range from a chocolate to a small value gift card. I also include a few activities which involve doing acts of kindness for others. Outdoor activities will obviously be limited this year but I'm still doing the Calendar. I have ideas like folding comb, scratchcard, guitar pics but I am struggling now. I did post on here a few weeks ago asking if anybody had any ideas but received no responses so I'm hoping that this time, I'll do better!
Thanks

Would he enjoy making a Gingerbread House? Or helping decorate the tree?
Get him to go to the supermarket and buy 5 items to put in the food bank donations.
You could have a £1 or £2 coin as gifts. A sachet of fancy hot chocolate. Funky shoe laces.

How big are the pockets/drawers?

@Fivemoreminutes1

How big are the pockets/drawers?
Pockets are tiny but I wrap the gifts and write the activities and put them in the pockets. Chocolates go in the pockets.
