I loooove the packs with 24 colors. "Many" sadly split up packs for crayons, color pencils. Having such a whole collection really gives inspiration to draw and color.
I love this idea! There can be such a quantitative and qualitative difference between boxes. You can pick up good bargains at after-school clearance sales.
I would recommend to check that measuring tapes and rulers have metric on one side. The United States is the only country still using inches and feet. Canada is all metric and when I visit relatives it can be confusing😂 Thak you for providing the wording on the card you enclose. I'm going to be working on pencil packs year round.
Beautiful packs. The processing line moves very fast, so if you want a certain pencil pack to go to a girl, like the mermaid one, you may consider marking it that way.
Thank you for your questions and comments. Yes, the measuring tapes are 150 cm and 60 in on the other side. As far as giving gifts and money other ways I would direct you to go to www.samaritanspurse.org and check out all the things they offer. They do offer other ways to support the families in with goats and chickens and lots of other opportunities. Packing shoe boxes for operation Christmas Child is just one of the opportunities to help share the gospel. And yes when packing lots of shoe boxes I do try to buy things in bulk when I can and look for Clarence items. It does help a lot! Thank you!
Do the measuring tapes have centimeters as well as inches? Except for the US, Myanmar or Liberia, all countries use the metric system, not the imperial system. Also, have you ever considered how much further donations could go if projects were funded to help parents provide gifts for their children? Things like micro loans to start up a business or raise animals? Enabling parents to provide gifts for their children helps them maintain dignity. Or, if supplies could be purchased in bulk and at a discount, how much more purchasing power would there be? Just some food for thought.
