Box Poem Gift Idea:
The best inexpensive Christmas
gift I ever received was from my son when he was in
Kindergarten. The class took empty boxes (hair
color, toothpaste, whatever) and wrapped them in
wrapping paper and tied them with a ribbon.
Attached to the memory box was this note:
I took an ordinary box
As empty as can be
I filled it with a special gift
And wrapped it carefully
But please don't ever open it
Just leave the ribbon tied
And hold it tightly near your heart
Because my love for you is inside!
You could also change the ribbon
line to read "just leave the bow applied" if you use
bows instead of ribbon. This of course is easier
than the ribbon for little ones. I loved this gift
and will keep it FOREVER.
