A Tradition of Wishes & Kindness - Create memories That Last!

This heartwarming game is designed to bring the magic of Christmas into your home, helping families create beautiful holiday memories while fostering gratitude, kindness, and generosity.
For 12 days leading up to Christmas, each family member receives a red velvet bag to store their wishes. Every day, they will write down a special wish on a wish card and, on the back, record one to four acts of kindness they have done that day. These small acts of love help spread the true spirit of Christmas, bringing joy to family and friends.
On Christmas Eve, the velvet bags are placed alongside cookies for Santa, symbolizing the
spirit of giving and gratitude. Parents can then collect the wishes and store them in a special keepsake album with envelopes, allowing them to record memories such as their child’s age, favorite traditions, and personal reflections—creating a cherished family tradition for years to come.
This game is a beautiful way to encourage kindness, reflection, and togetherness, reminding everyone of the true magic of the season.

  • 7 Red Velvet Bags – One for each family member to collect their wishes.
  • 196 Wish Cards – Space to write a wish on one side and record acts of kindness on the other.
  • Keepsake Wish Album with Envelop – To store and treasure each year’s Christmas wishes.

Whether celebrating the spirit of giving, honoring meaningful traditions, or simply creating a joyful holiday atmosphere, this game is designed for all families and beliefs. Let love, kindness, and the magic of Christmas fill your home!

Instructions for playing the Game

  • Step 1:

    Prepare the Velvet Bags:
    At the beginning of the 12-day countdown to Christmas, each family member receives a red velvet bag. The bag can be
    hung on the Christmas tree, ready to collect wishes and acts of kindness.

  • Step 2:

    Write a Wish & Perform an Act of Kindness:
    Each day, take a wish card and write down one special Christmas wish. Throughout the day, perform at least one act of kindness—this could be helping a family member, a thoughtful gesture, or spreading joy in your own way.

  • Step 3:

    Record Your Kindness & Store Your Wish:
    In the evening, write down the act of kindness you performed on the back of your wish card and add your name. If you performed more than one good deed, you can write up to four acts of kindness and add an extra wish for each.

  • Step 4:

    Keep Your Wishes Safe:
    Once completed, place your wish card inside your velvet bag and keep it safe. Each day, repeat the process, filling your bag with wishes and kind deeds.

  • Step 5:

    A Special Tradition for Christmas Eve:
    On Christmas Eve, place your velvet bag next to the cookies for Santa. This is your way of sharing the spirit of kindness and gratitude with the magic of Christmas.

  • Step 6:

    A Keepsake of Christmas Memories:
    After Santa’s visit, parents can collect the wish cards and store them in this keepsake album. The album includes space to add notes, pictures, and reflections, creating a beautiful tradition to cherish for years to come.

  • Optional Family Traditions:

    • Read past wishes from the album each year to reflect on growth and treasured memories.
    • Share stories on Christmas Eve, where each family member recalls their favorite act of kindness from the game.
    • Make it a yearly tradition and watch how wishes and kind deeds evolve over time.
