When did Xmas Eve boxes become a thing? 21:51 - Dec 19 with 4474 viewsMoonyDale

Just finished making my 2 Grandkids Xmas Eve Boxes, daughter said she wanted them for the little monsters so I duly make her 2, simple enough to make....Did anyone hear of these things before the past 2 Xmas ? It was def not a thing when I was a kid or when my kids were teeny critters....A prezzy on Xmas Eve, get your arse to bed and wait till morning....

Poll: Hill in or out? 2nd referendum.....

That's a thing?

Thought Black Friday was a piss take, but surely the whole idea of Xmas Eve is about expectation? Take that away, and you're left with minus f*ck all

Except... I'm celebrating the winter solstice, and the slow but sure return of longer days

If it’s longer days you’re after, try a new compilation dvd of Keith Hill’s post match interviews

If they want a starter take 'em to a restaurant. Xmas eve never was and never should be a thing. It sounds like summat from the US, home of commercialism and the buying of stuff you don't really want or need.

Christmas Eve boxes are typically given to young children as a way to break up the anticipation of the next day with some small gifts and activities. ... They can be as simple as a cardboard box or as elaborate as an engraved wooden chest, filled with sweets, pyjamas, films, books and games.

The tradition began last Thursday.

Having trawled Etsy looking for some I was amazed at the bloody price of these things, it did indeed start as a way of getting the rug rats to go bed and break the anticipation, someone is def coining it with these things, thank fook I can do them myself.....Loading up the car as we speak with supplies to make a shed load for next Xmas.....
