The True Spirit of Christmas
When it comes to getting
away from the materialism of Christmas...
Simplifying can be done with a little bit of effort. Encourage your
child to look beyond their own Christmas wishes and have them choose a
toy to donate to a local shelter, orphanage or charity. nDonate
and deliver a holiday meal to the local food bank. In keeping with the
\"simple\" spirit of Christmas, let family members know what your
intentions for gift giving are and set limits on gifts. You might want
to let family members make a donation to a charily in our child\'s name.
This is a great way of sharing the feeling you get from
giving.\n
Homemade Gifts
\nAnother fun activity is to let your
child make holiday gifts and/or cards for family and friends.\nThis is a
creative and fun way of teaching responsible and positive gift giving.
The only way to\nhandle the bombardment of \"must haves\" that the
television constantly subjects your child to is\nto de-emphasize it. Few
Christmas programs today have anything to do with the true meaning
of\nthe holiday. Be selective about what your family watches and turn
off the commercials that\ncompete for your child\'s values.\n
