How about starting some new traditions? Here’s some ideas that tie in with the current trend of paying it forward:
• Volunteer your time as a family at a soup kitchen or a food bank that hands out food to families in need.
• Find a giving tree that allows you to sponsor a family in need or purchase toys for children in need. Go shopping for the items together and donate them.
• Start a canned food drive in your neighborhood or at your child's school. Ask neighbors to donate canned and non-perishable foods, then donate them to a food bank.
• Go through closets and donate gently used clothing (coats are particularly useful this time of year) to a local shelter.
• Hold a book drive and ask coworkers, friends, neighbors, and family to donate books for kids that you can give to your local library, elementary school, or family shelter.
• Deliver cookies and treats to your local fire station, police department, and even the staff at your local hospital. After all, they’ll be working through the holiday.
• Don’t forget senior citizens! Volunteer time at your local senior citizens center or see if there is a giving tree specifically for the residents.
Do you have any special traditions like this in your family? What’s your favorite Christmas tradition?
