A heartfelt, handwritten card can make your package truly special. I enjoy taking a moment to express gratitude and share a favorite memory with each family member. If you need creative ideas, check out these inspiring Christmas card designs.
Include a Craft Set
Craft sets can spark creativity and bring a sense of accomplishment. I always tuck in a simple bauble-making set for a fun Christmas Eve activity. Pair these creative projects with mouthwatering Christmas Eve appetizers to complete your holiday evening.
Surprise with a Small Plush
A small Christmas plush adds an element of surprise and delight. I love seeing the joy on children’s faces when they find a cute plush toy inside. You can even tuck these toys near your small Christmas tree to create a festive display.
Add a Plate for Santa
Don’t forget about Santa’s essentials—a special plate for his treats and a bottle of milk. It’s a charming custom that adds a sprinkle of magic to the night.
Include Festive Coloring Books
Let creativity flow with Christmas-themed coloring books. I always include a set of colored pencils for an evening of artistic fun. If you are looking for more ways to capture the season, check out these sweet ideas for baby Christmas photography.
Surprise with a Christmas Jigsaw
Jigsaws are a fantastic way to wind down and bond. I love including a Christmas-themed jigsaw that we can all work on together. It is a great activity to pair with our chic Christmas decor themes.
Get Cozy with Holiday Sleepwear
There’s absolutely nothing quite like stepping into matching festive sleepwear to kick off a comfortable Christmas Eve. I always make sure to choose styles decorated with snowflakes and reindeer for that added spark of holiday magic.

Prepare Snowman Broth
Snowman broth is a whimsical addition that kids especially love. It’s just hot chocolate powder with little puffy sweets and a sweet stick, but the name makes it magical!
