Elves working in the kitchen.

School party time!
That means it's goody box time!




Christmas tree suckers, the cutest ginger bread boxes and legos.


I got these cute legos for .39¢ each on clearance last year!


Packed and ready to go!

I hope everyone is doing well. I've been slacking in the blogging dept.
 I promise to come visit everyone real soon!

Cost break down
Christmas themed legos  22*.39¢ = $8.58
4 packs of Christmas tree suckers = $4.00
Gingerbread boxes = $8.00 (big splurge!)
total= $20.58
22 kids total
.93¢ per kid! Not to bad!

Where did I buy everything?
Christmas legos are from Toys R Us. I bought them on clearance for 90% off! This was last year.
Christmas tree suckers are from Dollar Tree
Gingerbread boxes are from Oriental Trading. I bought them on a free shipping day.

I hope this helps someone!

Jennifer, this is wonderful ! How fun it would be to do this for children that will not have much for Christmas. Will implement this idea next year. Too precious not to share. TY for this.

THANK YOU for the lovely Christmas card & picture of your handsome boys. It is sitting right here beside me at my desk.

Merry Christmas, sweet friend

Those are so cute! I've never seen those legos before. They are perfect for the goody boxes. My son has a class party on Tuesday morning. It's a brunch (really a breakfast) and then they're doing a gift exchange with each other. I'm looking forward to it. I can't believe Christmas is almost here.
