Christmas Eve Hamper For A Toddler

This year I have decided to start a new Christmas tradition for our family. I have put together a Christmas Eve hamper for Daisy. Hopefully, next year if finances allow, I would like to make one for Chris and me to share too.

I didn’t want to overload the hamper so have just kept it quite simple. I’ve added things like Christmas themed pyjamas, festive sweet treats and a seasonal book.

This is the Hamper all made up. I covered a basket I already had with some festive wrapping paper. I’m going to keep my eyes peeled for a Christmas themed basket that I can reuse each year.

I chose these traditional flannel pyjamas from Asda. I love the pattern and that they are button up, they feel soft and lovely.

I’ve added That’s Not My Snowman to Daisy’s growing collection of That’s Not books. We also have a copy of The Night Before Christmas which is a must-read for Christmas Eve.

You can’t have a Christmas Eve hamper without a few sweet treats. I spotted a tub of Santa’s Beard candy floss in Asda. Daisy has never tried candy floss before but I think she will really enjoy it. I’ve also added some chocolate coins and a Snowman Soup from a local School Christmas Fair.

Daisy loves blankets, she has so many and can usually be found dragging two or three behind her ( I call her Linus from Peanuts). I just couldn’t resist adding this Owl blanket from TK Maxx, it’s super soft and just adorable.

My cousin made some Reindeer food with magic dust in it for us to sprinkle outside on Christmas Eve so Santa can find us.

Finally, I added a fun pair of festive socks to keep her toes warm.

After tea time on Christmas Eve, we will let Daisy have the hamper. We will let her have a little treat and make her a cup of Snowman soup before she goes to bed.

I’ve really enjoyed putting the hamper together, I’m looking forward to keeping the tradition going.
