Xmas eve hamper - better than last year

jorose

I'm looking for slipper socks for boys (3 and 8) there are girls christmas socks everywhere but no boys

I got the Primark ones for my ds (3). They are £1, one pair has Santa on them and I think the other has a robin, or maybe it is a snowman. I can't remember as they are up in the loft now. I thought they would be fine for a boy though. I can have a look and report back if its any help?

Hi
Does anyone know where i can find some Melamine Christmas Mugs - preferably small ones for small hands?

Also, anywhere that sells Bath Bombs suitable for 1 & 5 yr olds apart from Lush?

Cheers

I'm thinking of getting these xmas bath bombs from ebay:

I got some plastic christmas mugs from Yellow Moon I think last year but they do charge postage so perhaps not the best place.

I have done one each for our 2 children, and one each for myself and my OH.

OH's has in:
Some lounge pants (pj bottoms)
Some slipper socks
A miniature whisky (he loves canadian club)
A bottle of Dry ginger (to have with the canadian club if he wants it)
A disneystore christmas mug
2 x sachets of hot choccy
1 x box of tofeefe
1 x stanley building kit (like mecanno but loads cheaper!)

Not sure if this gives you any ideas or not?

Mine has in
Some PJ's
a disneystore christmas mug
1 x box of tofeefe
2 x sachets of hot choccy
some slipper socks
and I will probably add a magazine of some kind or maybe something crafty?

Thanks so much, never occured to me it could be an excuse to by myself something.

Going to do:
Love Actually DVD
PJs for both of us (from Primark so nice and cheap)
Christmas knickers for me (tesco £2.50 for pack of 4), christmas socks for OH
Hot chocolate for me, (imitation) Baileys to put in coffee for OH
Maltesers for me, chili nuts for OH
Radox bath soak (red one, £1 from Tesco)
Massage oil (not got yet, anyone recommend not too expensive source?)
Cranberry candles (already bought from partylite party, half going towards MIL's Christmas)
Lip balms for us both so we have misteltoe kissable lips! (might try and get mistletoe on a headband!)

I've got everything ready but have a small problem
DD doesn't like any hot drinks so I've no idea what to do for her Snowman Soup - have any of you got any ideas please, I don't want to do one full of sweets as I've already got sweets to put in her hamper. Thanks

Does she like Nesquick? You could use that I suppose, although I don't know how nice all the toppings might be with it...

Or on a similar vein, normal milkshake mix and replace the marshmallows/choc chips that would be in a normal Snowman Soup with something that can be added to the milkshake (like crushed Oreos in a chocolate milkshake).
