Great video, Nicole. I was in the school supplies section at Walmart over the weekend (it was tax free weekend on school supplies 😁). Anyway, there was a Mom and Dad and two young kids nearby shopping for supplies. I just had to smile because the kids were so excited about picking out their supplies. Then I remembered my kids also loved doing that. They would take their supplies home and sort them and admire them everyday until school started lol. I can just imagine how much the OCC shoebox recipients love the supplies in their boxes 🥹 Fantastic math kits! I also love packing mini calculators. I get them on Amazon in a big multi pack. That way, I can pack them in all my 10-14 boxes and even some in 5-9 boxes. TFS!

Wow, this is an amazing haul! Great deals. Kinda bummed you will no longer get those bouncy balls if the wholesale place is closing. Love the mini Canada cameras and baseballs. My favorite is those screwdriver houses. Very nice Canada shirts and shorts. Thanks for sharing!

Great job filling these toddler boxes! Lovely! ❤❤❤❤❤

Great boxes! TFS😊

Lots of fun! What a great haul! Thanks for sharing ☺️

Wow great haul. You got some great stuff. Thanks for sharing. It’s hard not to buy when you find such good deals😂

Wow, Nicole! What a great haul. Love those cute bounce balls! Great find on the stickers! The games are terrific items for your boxes. The accessory kits are adorable. I love stuff like that! This video was so fun to watch. Oh my gosh!! My youngest daughter was obsessed with squinkies when she was little. Very cute whistles and spinner tops. The school kits are darling! So many fun finds at Giant Tiger and Dollarama too too.

Wow great haul ❤

Lovely boxes, and items, are you planning to get/ make any clothes for the baby doll?

Great boxes!! Love the outfit you ended up with and that BEAR, it screams, “HUG ME, I am cuddly and soft”! TFS

You should make ASMR videos your voice is very calming

That was a great box

I have a Paddington bear in the works and this gave me some great ideas. I feel your pain when you can’t get everything in that you want to. Happened to me just last night. Great Box Kit, TFS!

Cute box, Paddington is very cute. I always get over zealous in picking things out-never fit everything..

Awww cute Paddington box! Great idea to double cup...I am going to try that. I don't want them to get bent out of shape. Thanks for sharing ☺️

I love Paddington.Great shoebox.

Oh my, love the monster truck VW bus! It will be perfect in another box. Such a variety of wonderful items. Third time packing it up was a charm! Dear Lord, Please look after this box, the boy who receives it, and the girl who packed it 😁 They are very special ❤️

Hi Nicole, This is a gorgeous box for Miss 2-4. I noted the boxed game and these are my most challenging to pack because they do not squish. Although it is sad to leave out the baby doll, the plush doll and the little fairies are a great combination. However, I am always curious to see the wash cloth packed on top. Washclothes are often the first thing that I pack as a flat layer on the base of the box. I have various reasons that I do this, but mostly to add softness and a pop of colour to the base of the box.

I would swap out the golf ball for something softer.

I often think I should pack that kind of paper tablet for the little ones just about to learn to write, but it’s hard to find at a really good price around here. I really love the one you packed - it’s even such a cute color. My other favorite item is the stacking toy! Thanks for sharing your sweet faerie box, Nicole 😊 🧚

Very sweet box, Nicole! I’ve got quite a few favorites in this one…the animal stacking game, her flip-flops and sunglasses, adorable necklace/bracelet set and the two cute fairy Sparkle Girlz dolls. this little one is going to be very excited. 🧚‍♀️🩷

This is a wonderfully Fairy Themed box. You amaze me with how much you can fit into the smaller OCC boxes!

Great shoebox!

You still fit a lot in the box! Great job!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Very nice box ❤

I know from experience that horse is hard to pack, so I am so impressed that you were able to pack it WITH the bathtub and the LEGO kit in the snack container, along with everything else. I realize it’s a little bit bigger box, but still, you did a great job and I’m certain all will be loved by the girl who receives it. ❤

Hi Nicole, Thank -you for sharing this box of oddly shaped items. I love how you created your base layer and then built the other layers around the horse. The use of the organiser / burlap bags worked well here to tuck everything in so neatly. This week, my challenge was to pack a plastic Ochre Whale (Killer Whale). Trying to build my base layer so that the dorsal fin did not poke through the lid of the box or its flippers through the sides of an AU OCC box was a real brain teaser.

The doll is so pretty!! Love this theme 😊

Great box. Love the horse and doll,stuffie, recorder. This box is full of fun. Thanks for sharing❤

Very nice spirit box❤

Happy Belated Canada day! Thanks for tip about the socks. Good to know.

Happy Canada Day! Hope you are enjoying your day off 😊

Great haul Nicole! Love close out pricing deals!

Those close out prices are awesome! Hope you can still shop at a different nearby Giant Tiger.

That’s unfortunate that one of your giant tiger stores is closing, but it’s great that you were able to take advantage of their closeout pricing. 👍

That car mat is really great, he will love it. I can’t believe you got everything in that box! thanks for sharing.

Great finds! 🙂

Very nice boy box, I love the car mat! That will get a lot of playtime. Thanks for sharing 💙🏎️

Very inventive packing! Way to go, Nicole! Love everything you packed and I know this little boy will be 😁

Super fun box Kit! I’ve had our kids at church, last year assemble those wooden race cars for boxes last year. I wish they would let us include the kits since they are sealed in their packages :( LOVE, Love the mat. Thanks for sharing.

Love the hotwheels set and the cute plush! This is a lovely box! You pack these boxes so well and have given me so many ideas on how to arrange items to fit, thanks!

That activity book is awesome! My son is obsessed with legos and that would be a huge hit at our house! You added soay fun things in this box! I really like that scooter toy. Thanks for sharing ❤️

Great shoebox! Love the Hot wheels mat. Very nice

Love the Lego activity book and hot wheels mat! Lots of fun in there! 😂😂😂and a random golf ball. Great job packing it up! Very fun box Nicole!

Love the theme.❤

Some little boy is going to love this box! I sometimes think that the kids might not recognize the themes we create unless they are universal so build fun boxes like this one!

Love this box! The stuffie is so cute!

Those flippable/ transformer cars are so cool. I wish our stores would bring them back. Nice box Nicole! His stuffie is so cute! You really got it all in there! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Love the way you pack in layers and show us layer by layer. 🤓 I just packed a couple construction zone boxes and packed that same truck eraser and the transforming/flippable truck in one of them. And I had lots of yellow too 💛 Thanks for sharing, Nicole. I always love seeing everything you pack.

Great job getting it all in there. That plushy looks so huggable! TFS
