Most of the supplies I had, I just bought the ribbon and clothes pins. The numbers I downloaded from Pinterest. Then i just used paper that I had in my scrapbook supplies. I hotglued ribbon on the clothes pins to make them cuter. Then glued the hotpins on the thick ribbon that I would hang. The envelopes I did not seal in case I need to change the activity (its hard not knowing when the kids will be over for sure) and I printed a calender where I planned and wrote down all the activities so that I can make sure i have the supplies needed for the different activities.
the finished product
up close, I ran out of envelopes (remember I was using what I had) so Christmas Eve has a special gold envelope which turned out kindof cute and the kids thought it was cool. Then they argued who gets to open that one so its going to be James.
On Thursdays we dont have kids so even though I have date nights planned, those envelopes are empty.
Our first activity was writing letters to Santa, then we took them to the Macy's box. We came home and made cookies.

James spelling words so they can write them down., I think here he was spelling Millenium Falcon

Ava's funny letter.
Don't look so happy kids. Dropping the letters off at the macy's Box.
I even let them use my markers which I NEVER do, and they are kept under lock and key. Go me for letting go. Haha.
