Really loved these Operation Christmas Shoeboxes. They are a bit bigger than my plastic shoe boxes that I filled with my goodies for the children. I used 8 of these boxes and 5 plastic shoeboxes. Was really proud of the boxes I packed this year.
Next year I will probably only pack a few boxes. I plan on going with more quality items versus quantity boxes. I plan on putting a bigger wow items in each box. I wasn't happy with the wow items I picked out for my boxes this year. So I do plan on watching for sales and such. Next year I really would like to focus on the boys 10-14, I feel as if they get overlooked when others are packing boxes.
Here is one of the boxes I packed. Not shown is the pink stuffed bear. I do like the mini fabric kit I put together with the 2 fabric squares. It does show that I love pink!!
Next year I do plan on putting together a few toolkit boxes for the older boys. I also will add the small fishing kits that I made this year. Made several and ended up not sending all of them. Maybe I can pick up a few more pieces of tackle to fill up the small kits.
