Spreading Cheer
During the holiday season, try to keep in mind those who are less fortunate than you are. Try to teach your nieces and nephews about children who are in need of help (of course, not just during the holidays), and plan some activities that revolve around giving and spreading cheer.
Some suggestions can include baking cookies, making holiday decorations, or creating personal cards and sending them to children’s hospitals, charities, soup kitchens, foster homes, etc. Some churches during Christmastime also offer “Giving Trees” which allow you to pick an ornament from the tree that suggests a present for families in need. This is also an activity that you can do together, shopping and picking out the gift, that will allow you to give back during the holiday season.
