- See our new Printables on our Blessings In a Shoebox Facebook Group! See Other Inspiration on the Blessings In A Shoebox Facebook group where we discuss hard questions like whether to support companies that use child and slave labor to make their products. Also, you'll find awesome deals on high quality items for shoeboxes on the Facebook group and cute new printables on blessingsinashoebox.com!
Franklin Graham says PRAYER and Personal Notes are the most important thing and he wants us to send MORE QUALITY TOYS in our shoeboxes and to the processing center as fillers! And that's our aim! We want children to experience delight when opening their shoebox gifts. And may that delight cause them to feel a deep desire to know more about this Jesus who loves them. And may they receive Jesus as Lord and Savior!
Want to know more about OCC and packing great shoeboxes? Watch Yves Dushime's story: From Hatred to Love on blessingsinashoebox.com. It's the first video on the page of videos at www.blessingsinashoebox.com. His podcast with Kristi Graham is even more enthralling. His testimony underscores the importance of school supplies in a shoebox!
Are you interested in an eternal relationship with Jesus Christ? Believe in Jesus, admit you have sinned and ask him to forgive your sins. Trust Him and receive him as your Savior and Lord. Read all about God in the Bible, starting in Genesis with creation to understand God and sin and the punishment for sin. Also, read the New Testament to understand what Jesus did, so that we could have forgiveness and redemption from sin. The Bible reveals God's plan for his children and the world. It tells us that Jesus will come soon for his children and we get to live forever with him!
We are blessed to have the Bible so we can know all about him.
I am very glad I can participate with Operation Christmas Child to bring the good news of Jesus and eternal life to the children around the world who have never heard about him. We are making a difference for eternity!

I absolutely knew you would be able to pack all of those things inside the shoebox. I always appreciate your dedication to making sure they are full of high quality items!
Thank you so much, Marie!
I think the pencil pouches being so full with both fun things (like the stickers) and helpful things is great!
I think so too!
You are talented at packing so much into standard size boxes. I am always amazed!
Thank you, Linda, but I’m sure you do the same. 😊 Thank you for watching my channel through the years. May God bless your packing and the children who receive our shoeboxes! ❤
@@christym.814 This year I purchased the slightly larger plastic boxes at Walmart. I may go back to the official OCC boxes next year for the challenge!
@@lindahitchcock7112You'd be surprised -- because of the slanted sides of the plastic boxes, they don't hold as much as they look like. I think it was Christy who did a video where she compared both types of official OCC boxes by filling each with dried beans. The packable space inside was EXACTLY the same, even though everyone thinks the plastic boxes are bigger. The straight sides of the cardboard boxes make the difference.
I bet the Walmart plastic boxes are close to or equal in useable capacity to the OCC plastic style.
@@Lunafalls Thank you for your thoughts. You are correct that the Sterilite boxes have slanted sides. When I place an OCC plastic box inside it, I have 2 inches more on the width and
1 1/4 in. more on the length. That may not be significant enough for some to use the larger box but this year I purchased the larger boxes so I am planning to send them. Next year I may take the challenge and get OCC traditional boxes again. I must have unconventional ideas this year, next year I may go traditional again, we'll see!
Thanx for showing!! I bought 2 of those Cabbage Patch dolls & was wondering how to fit it in! Nice box full Christy!! 😊
I’m always amazed at how many items you manage to fit in a shoebox! I need to work on my packing skills to do so well! ❤️👏👏👏👏❤️
Thank you! Flat on the bottom. Big Wow with everything else packed around the wow. Then add the little gems wherever you can. I always tell myself, “Don’t send air”!
What a great box! I really think the children may prefer a non-themed box. More variety. Also, this kind of video where you are packing, rather than unpacking the box is so very helpful to me. (Although I have learned a lot from the un-boxings too.) Thank you!
Oh thank you! I’ll try to keep doing packing videos if it helps. ❤️
Very nice full fun box ❤
Thank you 🤗
Great job! Any more ideas for toys for this age? I do have Melissa and Doug blocks.
Blocks are great! I like little wooden cars and musical instruments like a harmonica or shaker bells.
Love your videos! I have learned so much from you and Michelle! Where do you get your bandanas?
Hobby Lobby. Aisle with blank totes and lots of bananas. Marbles too in party supply section.
Christy, I appreciate how you fit so many nice items. That's more important to me than repeating the same character over and over. I like general themes, or none. For toddler girls, a quality, anatomically correct baby doll is developmentally appropriate and very special. I include one for all toddler girls and then, like you, see what size plush will fit. I like the little dresses and stretch bike shorts too for toddler girls. They will last for a long time, I think, by turning into a top. 😊
Thank you, Pam. I love filling a standard size OCC box with a variety of practical fun items. I’m usually able to surprise myself! 😂
@@christym.814You surprise me! For a long time I needed my husband's mechanical, spatial brain help, and still do sometimes. He recommends that I keep watching you. 😂
@@pamelaknuutila1109 oh Pam! That’s hilarious!
