Celebrate Boxing Day with Family Overseas
Boxing Day, also known as St. Stephen's Day, is celebrated on December 26th by many Commonwealth nations. It is a day when people traditionally exchange gifts with their loved ones and celebrate the holiday season.
If you have family members overseas and want to celebrate Boxing Day with them, there are many ways you can do so, even if you can't be physically present with them.
No matter what you choose to give, the most important thing is to show your loved ones that you are thinking of them and that you care. So whether you celebrate Boxing Day in person or from afar, it is a time to come together and show your love and appreciation for one another.
If your loved ones happen to be overseas for the holidays, you can send them a thoughtful gift to help them celebrate Boxing Day.

"Bought this for my bathroom. Added candle holders, mini lights, and flower heads. Love it! Thick glass and seems fairly durable. The price was an added plus!" – Tracy.
Amazon Gift Card, $10+
If all else fails or you're unsure what a loved one needs, you can always get them an Amazon Gift Card for as much money as you'd spend on a gift. You can choose to send it digitally or in a box with a personalized "Thank You" note.
The gift cards have no expiry date, so the receivers can use them whenever they need something. Extremely simple and relaxed!
