9 Magical Gifts for Your Kid's Christmas Eve Box

Whether it’s putting the tree up on the same day each year, leaving a mince pie out for Santa or sending handmade Christmas cards, we all have our own Christmas traditions.

Here at B&M HQ we love the excitement that comes with all the various festive traditions, but we especially love the Christmas Eve Box idea! An increasingly popular activity over the last few years, just fill your box with small gifts and treats that your excitable elves can enjoy on the night before Christmas!

To get you started, we’ve rounded up some of the best gifts for your Christmas Eve Box.

1) Christmas Eve Box

The best place to start is with the Christmas Eve Box itself. You’ll find a variety of designs in-store, including a magical unicorn number and boxes made to look like they’ve just arrived from the North Pole!

2) Christmas Drinking Jar with Straw

A fun addition to the Christmas Eve festivities, and something they can use throughout the holidays. Features a handy sealable lid and straw, saving you from accidental spills. The Christmas Glass Drinking Jar is available in Santa, Elf, Penguin and ‘East, Drink & be Merry’ designs.

3) Kids Family Christmas Pyjamas

PJs are the perfect Christmas Eve Box inclusion! You may have been doing the ‘new pyjamas on Christmas Eve’ tradition for a few years now, so this is a great way to package them up and gift them to your little elves. Hopefully they get them just as excited for bed as they are about Santa’s imminent arrival!

B&M Top Tip: what’s that, you’d like the whole family to wear matching pyjamas this year? Well it’s a good job our Christmas Pyjamas come in Ladies and Mens sizes too!

4) Milk Chocolate Gold Coins

Would it really be Christmas without edible money? A net of chocolate gold coins has been a stocking staple for generations, so why not make it a regular fixture in your Christmas Eve Box?

5) Magical Christmas Dust

Sprinkle a bit of magic throughout your home with this great craft accessory. If you’re getting creative on Christmas Eve, this bottle of Magic Christmas Dust will bring their works of art to life.

6) Treats for Santa Set

We’ve been leaving treats out for our midnight visitors for generations and these plates for Santa, Rudolph and his elves will get kids even more excited for the big day.

7) Mini Christmas Squeezer

Perfect for your toddler, they can snuggle up to their new Mini Christmas Squeezer as they dream about Santa’s arrival. Also available in Reindeer and Penguin.

8) Hollow Chocolate Set 5pk

Just a little something to sweeten them up, our Hollow Chocolate Elves can be enjoyed as a Christmas Eve snack in front of the TV.
