One of my most favorite ideas is An Elf Kit!! I found this cute box at Hobby lobby and painted it up. (Don't look too close, some obvious touch ups are needed) Then into the box is added all the things our family needs for Christmas morning like a screwdriver for the battery hatches that are screwed shut, a box cutter, and wire snips, trash bags for wrapping paper, batteries etc. Once it has what we need it goes under the tree with the rest of the presents waiting for its time to shine Christmas Morning. Here are some suggestions of things you could put inside it and also a poem I wrote if it is being used as a gift.
loves to all!!

This is your Elf Kit
And here is the plan
It will help Christmas morn
I’m positive it can
Put it under your Tree
A place to store it no doubt
You’ll never have to worry
Not one single kiddy will pout
Everything you need is in there
And ready to go, its true
It’s filled with all the important stuff
Especially our love for you!

What a great tip! I remember when we were kids how awful it was to get some great toy but have no batteries for it. (And back then you couldn't even find a gas station open on Christmas.) Super idea!
