How to build the ultimate Christmas Eve box: ideas and fillers for adults and kids
What is a Christmas Eve box?
A Christmas Eve box is a curation of small gifts, edible treats, clothing, and fun activities, given on 24th December to create excitement before the big day.
Thought to have been inspired by the Christmas celebrations of European countries, where the exchange of presents happens on the evening of December 24th, it’s a relatively new tradition that’s become more and more popular over the last few years. And, while they’re usually aimed at kids, Christmas Eve boxes can be enjoyed by adults too.
