Operation Christmas Child

Laptop, new phone, top of the range games console. What's on your Christmas list? It seems a bit early to think about Christmas but your parents have probably started putting money away for it.

Think of what you got last year because there are people in Africa, Central Asia and Eastern Europe. who don't get anything for Christmas. They would be overjoyed by just a few small toys or even a pack of pencils. Operation Christmas Child are giving you the chance to make someones's year with just a small shoe box of toys.

You can include pens, pencils, notebooks, yo-yos and anything you think the child of the selected age range will like. To celebrate the Olympics this year you can send sports equipment in the shoebox. I know for a fact that loads of people who live round there love football so why not give them a small football. Just remember to not include any war themed items, food or dangerous items.

All the infomation you will need is in the leaflets that the school hands out or you can go to http://www.operationchristmaschild.org.uk/ for your nearest drop off point.
