12 Days of Christmas gift for Latter Day Saint youth and Christians! A container with 12 pieces of candy, each labeled with a QR code to a Christmas video! A fun gift idea for teens! Not a member of our church? No problem. I also made labels that everyone can use! This post contains affiliate links.
This is a great gift for ANY Christian youth or youth group! All of the videos are New Testament based, and the Studio C comedy videos are good, clean fun for the whole family!

One of the challenges of giving gifts to teens is coming up with something practical, yet engaging. This 12 days of Christmas gift won’t end up on a shelf collecting dust, and won’t end up in the trash (at least not right away). It includes 12 Christmas videos to brighten their day the 12 days leading up to Christmas. It also includes CHOCOLATE.
12 Days of Christmas Gift for Latter Day Saints And Christians
The QR codes link to a selection of Youtube videos from the Latter-Day Saints Channel, The Piano Guys, The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square, Studio C, and the Strive to Be Channel. Here are the links as a reference. The QR codes are on a printable sheet linked in the supplies section and at the end of the post.
Day 1: Getting Into the Christmas Spirit- The True Meaning of Christmas
Day 2: Santa’s Elves Go On Strike (Studio C)
Day 3: Far Away
Day 4: Gifts of Christmas
Day 5: The Greatest Gift
Day 6: Christmas Is
Day 7: Angels From the Realms of Glory (Largest Nativity Scene)
Day 8: O Come, Emmanuel (Piano Guys)
Day 9: What Shall We Give? (The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square)
Day 10: The Coat: A Story of Charity
Day 11: Elf on the Shelf Gone Wrong (Studio C)
Day 12: The Christ Child: A Nativity Story #LightTheWorld
For those who would prefer a device-free option I’ve included 12 scripture references from the New Testament and Book of Mormon that can be used instead. I had a request from someone who said many youth at her church don’t have cell phones, so scripture references would work perfectly. Another option would be to find 12 quotes about Christmas and print those, one for each day.
Each QR code is cut out and attached to the back of a piece of candy. You can use Ghirardelli chocolate squares, peppermint patties, or a variety of holiday candies depending on your budget. We’ve given the young women $5 fleece throws or cozy socks in the past, always keeping the budget between $3-$5 per girl. This gift fit right within that budget.
Supplies Used
- 16 oz. containers with lids
- Ghirardelli Chocolates (or any kind of candy)
- Paper Shred (optional)
- Copy Paper
- Scissors
- Printable QR Codes
- Printable Lids (LDS Youth Label, Labels for Everyone)
These containers are perfect for holding 12 pieces of candy. You can add a bit of paper shred to fill in any gaps, but it really isn’t necessary. The printable lids fit these containers EXACTLY. If you use different containers simply attach the label to the front or side, or tie the label on with string!

Thx so much for this idea. I live a small town in Texas and need help with ideas.
I’m so glad that you found this helpful!
This would be great as a ministering gift as well! Could you make a label without youth on it??? Thank you!
Hi Melinda! I have a tag for Latter Day Saints as well. Hope that helps! 🙂
Love this! It is worth noting that Day 2 and Day 11 are the same video with the Elf on the Shelf by Studio C.
Thanks for letting me know! The QR codes are correct, I must have just pasted that link twice in the link list!
Thanks. I looked at the QR code for 11 but didn’t check to see if QR Code 2 was different. As you said, it is. Very fun idea! Thanks for sharing!!
Awesome! Thank you for sharing! ❤️
Hi can you link the labels you used to print them out on? The lid and the candy ones?
Hi Jessie! I printed them onto copy paper and cut them out and attached them with double sided tape. Sticker labels would be faster for sure!
This is adorable! Is it possible to receive it as a jpeg or png so I can cut the circles and squares for QR codes with my cricut? It doesn’t support PDFs, but I love the idea! Thanks in advance!
Sure thing! I’ll send it to the email listed in your profile!
Would you be willing to do a label that just says, “12 days of Christmas “ and nothing else on it??
Sure thing!
What a fun, cute idea!! Thanks so much for sharing
Hi! Love the twelve days of Christmas Printable. Thanks for sharing! You mentioned in a comment that you got ice cream containers that fit twelve chocolates and the cute label on top. Would you mind sharing the link to the containers that you ordered?
Sure thing! https://amzn.to/3FjMJeq
Did you make a tag with instructions to go with this? Absolutely love this idea!
Thank you sharing!
I do not have a tag with instructions. I figured the youth could figure it out with the codes. 🙂 And, thank you!
This is so great and a lot of work on your part! Thank you for sharing your time & talents with all of us. Much appreciated! ❤
Thank you for your sweet comment! This was a lot of fun to come up with! 🙂
Can you tell me what font you used to make the round labels for the lids? Our Young Women group wants to create a little tag with each girl’s name on it and some instructions for watching the videos each day. I just wanted to copy the font you used.
Thanks so much for putting this wonderful idea together!
Hi Sharlene! I used PicMonkey to create the labels and the font is: KAYTO SANS
