As we get into October, it’s time to really start to get focused on packing Operation Christmas Child (OCC) Boxes. What a better way to teach your kids about Christmas, than letting them help pack boxes of gifts for kids that will never get a present any other way.
If this is your first time hearing about it, then let me share the basics.
Your family can pack a shoe box filled with little things that any kid would love and need. There are collection sites all over the US, and from their your gift is processed and shipped to any one of a number of countries.
If you plan ahead the cost is very minimal, but a great outreach and lesson for your children. . Some things to look out for:
Toothpaste
Toothbrush
Bar Soap
Wash Towel (I like the ones that are super shrunk and grow they get wet- they are $1 at Dollar Tree)
Stickers
Sun Glasses
School Supplies
Little Toys
After you are done packing your box they ask for a $7 donation to help with shipping costs. It is not required, but it helpful. I would encourage you to make your donation online, and then you’ll get to follow your box all the way to it’s destination country
