It's Packing Party Season! 🎉🎁🎁

Our second packing party of the year is this weekend and I have a lot of bins to get down and go through! Join me as I start getting prepped for the party, which will be 60 shoeboxes for the 10-14 year old girls and boys. Some of these items I purchased almost a year ago now, so it'll be fun to see these shoeboxes coming together. 💗

Yes, included stuffed toys for every age group. I know someone who went on a distribution trip to South America. She said that EVERY CHILD enjoyed having something soft to hold.

I love how you put the dolls in organza bags. The 10-14 girls boxes are going to be awesome.

Wonderful items for the older girl boxes. The unicorns are such a pretty color.
The pencil packs are great and that kitty stick is darling.
How sweet of your neighbors to make those pretty bracelets.
These girls will be so blessed! Thanks for sharing your older girl items! 🦄✏️📝💓

Your boxes are beautiful! I love the colorful unicorns and the hairmazing dolls are so cute! You included so many wonderful items including school supplies and clothing as well as fun toys - wow! The children who receive these shoebox gifts will be overjoyed! Thank you for sharing how you do packing parties - so many wonderful ideas! 😊💗

Great items for both girl and boy. These boxes will bless many other children. Thanks for sharing.❤

Thank you for noticing the age appropriate stuffed unicorns. .walmarts and other places like target have holiday brands that are ornaments. They are collector types. Not hugging and loving types. Don't give these to kids. Different materials not stitched strong or insides have a bit of toxic plastics etc. Thank you for noticing. Great tip on why these are older 10-14 or junior high- freshmen aged.

Great example items! Love the wows and the bracelets! I have quite a few boxes left to finish still but I have been delayed by my cat dying and I am currently sick so please pray I can get them all done! Thanks for this awesome video with great example boxes!

I'm glad you mentioned about having garage sales to raise shipping/processing funds. I was wondering how your family manages it in your budget when you do so many boxes. You are super organized!

I’ve gotten so many ideas from you! I always wait to shop a little before November- need to do my “shopping” all year! Thank you!! God Bless You!! I have deflated soccer balls for the older boys- 10-14. But the girls I needed ideas for! Thank you so much!!!

Lovely WOW items.

First of all, you and your party packed so many shoeboxes for the younger kids. That's amazing. Wonderful wow items. - love the stuffed unicorns. I love those drawstring backpacks. My favorites are the bead bracelets your neighbor made. Gorgeous. Thanks for sharing a sample shoebox. The monster trucks are awesome. I've ordered Epic Sports before and their tops are great. The Lego Valentine kits are super fun. Great variety of items for your packing party. I'm sure it will be a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing your packing party prep!

Great video! Very motivating 🙂

Really enjoyed this video. Your boxes will be so nice. Just fyi… balloons only have a shelf life of 6-12 months. I worked closely with a balloon vendor for many years. Just looked it up online to confirm my memory. Punch balls are a lot of fun and my children enjoyed them. Thanks for sharing your packing party videos.
