Description

Christmas day although lovely is a busy time, I love watching the children open their gifts, but i do love Boxing day. Its a time to breath and enjoy  the time with my family. 

The Boxing day box will contain a skein of luxury yarn, and special gifts to open and enjoy when you get a few minutes to relax.

Boxing Day, in Great Britain and some Commonwealth countries, particularly Australia, Canada, and New Zealand, holiday (December 26) on which servants, tradespeople, and the poor traditionally were presented with gifts. By the 21st century it had become a day associated with shopping and sporting events.

Explanations for the origin of the name have varied, with some believing that it derived  from the opening of alms boxes that had been placed in churches for the collection of donations to aid the poor. Others, however, have held that it came from the boxes of gifts given to employees on the day after Christmas. According to this theory, because the work of servants was required for the Christmas Day celebrations of their employers, they were allowed the following day for their own observance of the holiday. The practice of giving bonuses to service employees has continued, although it is now often done before rather than after Christmas Day.
