I want to get the word out to everyone how wonderful it is to do this. I have each kid put one together. If your own church doesn't do it, you can find one that does or go online.
What you do is pick an age group, pick male or female and fill the box with age appropiate things. Most important is to add things like, gloves and beanie hats, toothbrush and toothpaste, comb or brush, flashlight and batteries, small toys, candy, books, etc. You would be surprised what you can fit in a shoebox. You can also include a letter and photo of your family. It is great to have the kids do this, it helps them to remember to help others.
The dollar stores are a great place to find a whole bunch of stuff. Then you add, I think it's 5 or 7 $ for shipping.
I hope you all will participate and Honor Jesus with this act of kindness for His Birthday.
