Can't believe Iv forgot about it and have no 'box' prepared Iv bought new pjs, few sweets, any last minute ideas would be fab we are out tomorrow afternoon so I can nip out first thing and leave it from the 'elves' for our return ... I feel bloody awful I'm usually such an ott mum so to forget about it has made me really upset😭

Do you have a cardboard box laying around? You could wrap it up with wrapping paper (if you have enough of it left, that is.)

Do you need to do it?

It isn't too late, there is still time to put one together. Don't berate yourself, there is a lot to remember at this time of year and your little one(s) will have lots of magic anyway. We usually pop new PJs, some reindeer food, a new Xmas decoration to add to the tree/small toy, things for hot chocolate (a sachet, mini marshmallows, a Christmassy cup) and a small Lindt style Father Christmas/reindeer or similar. I jazz it up with mini Xmas lights.

My Xmas eve ‘box’ consisted of new pjs some years ago blanket too and was given in a gift bag. You don’t need a gift bag/box just give the new pjs as they are!

I used a bag for life for ours!
(Admittedly my "children " are 21, 20 and 18, so the magic will not be lost!)
Its easier on the elves if its in a bag...
