I used to live in a 3rd world country and received one of these boxes when I was a kid. Now that I’m older and have migrated to America, I praise God so much that I’m able to pack my first boxes to give. I know THE THRILL of opening these boxes as a kid and I want more young people to experience that. These ideas are great, but if there’s one thing I’ll ask is to keep some of the packaging on (like the crayon box since it keeps them all together) and there’s a certain excitement when you get to open NEW things yourself. It doesn’t feel like a hand-me-down. :)
What were some things you actually needed? I always want to make sure to pack stuff that’s needed as well as fun.
I generally remove the packaging I have started, including heavy-duty zip lock bags in the bottom of the box since they are so useful and may not be available in the receiving country.
I remember getting one of these as a child. I remember the joy of opening the containers. This unlocked a precious memory ❤️
When I was a child my mom and dad would get us to pack some of our Halloween treats in the shoebox each child was making. Now that treats aren't allowed, I get some of the smaller toys from the pocket money section of the toy shop.
For older children I recommend a smaller toy hygiene item keyrings water bottle school supplies are a must small packs of Lego a ball i think a lot of people think doing the older children is more challenging than it is don’t forget that children in 3rd world countries are often younger so a 14 year old in our world would play computer games but they would still play with a ball.
Yes, we are missionaries overseas. We have served in Ecuador and Colombia. And in both locations teen boys always loved clothing and sports items. They really enjoy soccer balls, but don't forget to send a pump and extra needles for it. ;)
The only thing I would question is taking everything out of the packaging. Crayons, colored pencils, markers, etc. are a lot easier to keep together and not lose, if they're kept in their boxes. Lose items like these will be lost in a week, if they're not in their boxes. 🎄
Merry Christmas!
Thank you for sharing these great tips!
These boxes are such a blessing to kids, as they not only share God's love, but each box provides the Gospel message for that child.
This video is such an encouragement and gives some great ideas for packers. :)
I choose ages 2-4 we have 4 boxes to fill this year . I have 4year Ike twins so there input was amazing. I got flex tubes for sensory and pop it’s I choose 2 boys and 2 girls . I felt like I hit the jackpot at dollar tree I found backpacks 🎒 and silly cups w straws and play dough kits and wash cloths and socks and a plate and silverware plastic kid kits soap and brush for girls and combs for boys I also included braid elastics for the girls boxes I also picked up activity box from target dollar spot w paper , stickers and crayons ❤ and bandaids Stuffed dolls for girls and plastic truck for boys . I pray these are helpful
A deflated soccer ball with a pump is great for the older boys. The love them.
Sometimes my local Chinese takeaway will send food in little plastic containers. I wash and reuse them as they almost perfectly fit. A wash cloth, stick of deodorant, bar of soap, covered childs toothbrush and small comb.
This will be my first time doing this.
A big part of Financial Freedom is having your heart and mind free from worry about the what-ifs of life! Have an amazing week everyone!!!
So true! I loved being able to not think twice on if we could give this year or not!
Don't forget to add a Christmas card with a personal note and/or a photograph.
Thanks for sharing and inspiring. Batteries need to be taped at ends. Hope many more join in packing for 2023.
I’m doing it this year and packing a box for a 10-14 year old girl.
Great video! Very encouraging
Glad you enjoyed it!
How do I get a box? Or what is the measurements of the box? I have purchased enough for 4 boxes.
Hi. I’m doing a shoebox, for the first time. So, can I unwrap the plastic off the package? Like if the plastic water bottle is wrapped in plastic? Also, do we scratch through prices that are written on items? 😊
Yes you can do this however I always leave packing on tooth brushes or buy tooth brush heads to keep them hygienic
Yes, I am a missionary and we receive shoeboxes... Most people take packaging off so that they can fit more in the boxes. The only thing that absolutely has to stay in it's packaging is soap... but I also recommend leaving toothbrushes in the packages so that they don't get dirty in transit.
I bought ny shoe box at Hobby Lobby.
Chick Fil A gives them out for free.
Is it ok if the box or container is a tad bigger than the average shoebox?
