Sunshine Box Ideas To Brighten Someone’s Day!
Send a Sunshine Box to anyone, at any time of year, to brighten their day! These Sunshine Box Ideas and Printables will make your Sunshine Care Package EXTRA special!
We have an extended family member who will be in the hospital for a lengthy amount of time. He has three little kids, at home, who miss him and could use a fun surprise to brighten their day! We took a trip to Target and found YELLOW things that we think they might like, I created printables to decorate the box, a Prayer Journal that I hope they’ll love, and a Sunshine Popcorn Tag to put on a bag of microwave popcorn! Our hope is to send a little sunshine, in a time that is rocking their world.
A Sunshine Box would be perfect for college students, family, friends, and anyone you would like to do something special for!
