So we decided to start a new Holiday Tradition for the month of Thanksgiving. It's all about giving thanks {and giving back}. We have some-what done this before in ways of over-tipping during Holidays, donating to a cause or buying jackets for others and things like that but we have never actually set out as a family to make someone's day special without choosing how much, when etc. with the kids completely involved. It's not always about money. We want to teach them how valuable time can be as well. We are going to put our hearts into this without thinking about it.
The kids and I came up with this idea from The Dating Divas.
I like that it had printable's to go along with and a huge list of ideas of things that we can do. Each idea the kids chose was appropriate for their age. I really love that.
We are super excited about getting out into our community and doing fun things this year. I can't wait to see the kids put this into action and hopefully learn from it. Even better - I hope they carry this on to their families when they are older.
