We just did this! And this year we got a great idea from Mary Haven at Homesteeped Hope and we bought PLASTIC shoe boxes. We added Christmas sticker decorations to the boxes and now they’ll have a lasting place to keep all of their stuff!

I love this idea. I can’t wait to fill my shoebox. I know the kids are excited to participate in this.

Thanks so much for posting this idea. I’ve been looking for something to do with the kids this year to show them the true meaning of Christmas.

Thanks to you, I think I’ve found what I’ve been looking for!

It’s an awesome project that we too do every year! Great learning experience for everyone – this year Aubrey asked to do her own – so she’s using her allowence to pay for the items going into her box (that was VERY important to her) – I gotta them them all finished and ready to mail when she returns home tomorrow! GREAT TACKLE!!!

We do this every year with our kids…we always pick a girl, of course, since they can more identify with picking out girly gifts.
Ours is about ready to go to Awana tomorrow!

A great tackle. I love the shoe boxes from Samaritan’s Purse. :0) It’s one of my favourite relief organizations. We haven’t done shoe boxes for a little while but will either do one in the near future or next year. We’ll let our girls do one up for another girl their age. How fun!!!

This is a great program. Our church does it everyyear. Dont forget to wrap the box and the lid seperately, because they need to check the contents. We are working on ours as well.
