    I fell in love with all over again the Little House on the Prairie series over the summer when we did our cross country move to Virginia.

    The girls and I listened to the first 5 books in the series and it was so fun to see them so excited and not wanting to stop the audible story, even when it was time to stop driving for the day.

    Ruby's excitement when Jack came back after thinking he had drowned in the creek was almost too much. She was literally on the edge of her carseat, eyes bright, and had a huge smile on her face.

    By far, the stories they love the most are the ones about Christmas. The girls loved the detailed description of what was in Mary and Laura's stockings each year, as humble as they were.

    I thought it would be fun to make the girls each a Little House on the Prairie Christmas gift box this year. Complete with tin cup (mine are stainless steel), a new nightgown, night cap, peppermint candy, a tiny heart pan to make a sugar cake, and a coin.

    My sister in law sent the girls this darling cookbook for Christmas and it was the perfect addition!

    I also picked up a Little House on the Prairie coloring book for Kaylee and the story book collection for Ruby. The illustrations in both books are gorgeous! I also found a Little House on the Prairie Paper Doll Book that I went back and forth on, but decided to only get them one book a piece, and they can share the cookbook.

    I haven't decided if I'll add a penny, or something special like a silver dollar to complete the gift, but I still have a couple of week until Christmas to decide.

    If realize that if I was going be historically accurate that I would have made the nightgowns out of white fabric, but when I saw this floral flannel at Joanns, I couldn't pass it up. I bought it in two colors. It's so feminine and soft.

    The nightgown pattern is the one linked in this post. I've used this pattern for YEARS and love that it is such a quick sewing project! I added trim along the bottom and a ribbon and extended the length. The adorable night cap was another quick project, about 15 minutes start to finish! I used this diagram and made each of them out of 20" circles and 18" elastic.

    And I'm sure someone will point out that the gift collection here is missing a rag doll.  I HATE making dolls, and am not very good at it. I also haven't found any that I liked online, but if I do, I'll add one of those too.

    What would you add to this Little House on the Prairie Christmas gift?

      Hi! I make rag dolls and created Little House gift sets in my Etsy shop this year!
      https://vagnettes.etsy.com
      They're under "Christmas 1868: The Vicar's Holiday"

      I even made Almanzo's dinner pails with play food, sized for American Girl dolls!

      Oh this is a sweet idea! I will have to make this for my granddaughters for next Christmas. I had an idea that doesn't really go with the night time theme but that I think would be so cute, to make a bonnet, but in wool for winter wear. It could be quite cute with a nice wool felt lining. Wool is very easy to thrift, too! Thanks for the lovely idea.

      I love the fabric you used and so hope that JoAnn's might still have some left. It really is so classic. Thank you for sharing this post. I love Little House and am going to look into getting the series for my daughters.

        They should! Mine had 3 colors and a giant bolt of each. Good luck! 🙂

      What a lovely idea! : )
      I especially like the nightgown.

      We're into Little House here, too, and Santa is sending a gift on that theme. Shhhhh! ; )

      I am a HUGE Little House fan and pretty much have every book memorized, so I hopped right over from #ThisIsHowWeRoll. I, too, love the Christmas stories in each book and listen to the set on CD book every year starting in September so I can get them all in before Christmas. What a delightful post. Merry Christmas to you!
