Christmas Eve Box Giveaway!
Tradition
For many of us, Christmas is one of the most exciting times of year. Households all over the world will celebrate in their own special and unique way. A tradition many share is the magic of leaving a mince pie* and a glass of milk for Father Christmas, with a crunchy carrot for his trusty reindeer, Rudolph (*other treats available). Other countries celebrate Christmas on the 24th, so perhaps it’s a reflection of our wonderfully diverse community that we are slowly adopting new traditions. Over the past few years, a new tradition has been coming to homes across the world. The Christmas Eve box. Those that embrace the idea, favour it as a wonderful way to start the Christmas festivities a day early. It has become a way of giving a small collection of gifts that the family can enjoy together in anticipation of Christmas. Is Christmas all about gifts? Absolutely not! The magic of Christmas is having those around us who mean the most. Simple pleasures and treats we can look forward to as a family can be part of the excitement. Popular items to include are Christmas pyjamas, a book, a toy, some snacks and reindeer food. It can be whatever you want it to be.
What’s in the Box?!
We have seen so many people excitedly sharing ideas of what they are preparing for their Christmas Eve box. So we thought we would combine some of your lovely ideas in our ‘Babipur Dream Box’ giveaway! We’ve tried to include a little bit of fun and treats for the whole family. We hope you like it! The prize contains:
Little Green Radicals Falling Leaves Pyjamas

Story sack for ‘A Squash and a Squeeze’ by Julia Donaldson
Use props and toys to bring your favourite stories to life. See the excitement as you share story time together as a family.

Plan Toys make the most amazing green, safe and ethical toys. The wood used in this bath toy is made from exhausted rubber plantations, and is both beautiful and robust. All it needs is someone to play with!
Mia & Dom Bath oil and Remedies
A Christmas Eve box should be for all the family to enjoy. So we’ve included a little bit of luxury for the grown ups too! Mia & Dom is one of our newest products to stock at Babipur, and it’s been a huge hit already. Developed with passion and love by Jennifer Feltham, it is a beautiful range of organic and natural skin care for the whole family. So put the kids to bed, run a bath, add a few drops of this gorgeous bath oil, which includes geranium, palmarose and ylang ylang, and relax. Keep the calming and de-stress remedies on hand over the festive period, to help you feel positive and relaxed.
Glosters pottery decoration in aid of Doctor’s without Borders
Babipur loves supporting other independent businesses, especially local ones. So we were very excited when our friends at Glosters, a Porthmadog-based pottery, agreed to work with us to make some beautiful Christmas decorations. 100% of the sale price of each decoration will be donated to the charity Doctors without Borders, or Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF). We hope you love them as much as we do. If you want to know more you can read about them here.
The Raw Chocolate Company Goodies
Coming very soon to Babipur are the amazing range of delicious raw goodness from the Raw Chocolate Company. We have been looking to stock these products for some time, and are very excited to say that it won’t be long now! From raw chocolate bars, chocolate coated berries and nuts, to amazing raw ingredients to whip up your own exciting creations, there is so much to choose from. Included in the Christmas Eve box will be 5 x 150g packs: chocolate goji berries, chocolate almonds, chocolate raisins, chocolate mulberries, and mulberries. All products are raw, gluten free, and vegan.
Hot Chocolate No. 3 from Brontie and Co
We think that a yummy hot chocolate on Christmas Eve is just the perfect drink to snuggle up with on the sofa in your Christmas PJs, and to watch a film together as a family. Simply mix with water or your favourite milk, if you want a creamier version, sit back, relax, and enjoy. This is not a product stocked by Babipur, but Brontie makes the most delicious raw and vegan chocolate and treats. Brontie is an inspiring and motivated woman who made a big change in her life, so as to make her dreams of producing raw chocolate a reality. She wanted to make a difference with every purchase, so her business donates a large percentage of its net profits to charities close to their hearts, including Doctors without Borders.
Ananda’a Original Vegan Marshmallows
Well it wouldn’t be hot chocolate without Marshmallows would it now?! Made in Derbyshire, Ananda’s Marshmallows are suitable for Vegetarians, Vegans & Coeliacs. Made in the UK by hand, in small batches and contain completely genuine and natural flavours. A delicious treat for all the family to enjoy.
