On one hand we’re trying to reduce chaos, clutter and plastic while on the other we hit the stores during holiday season to but gifts and toys for our kids.
5 Last minute non-toy gift ideas
Do you remember a really special Christmas present you received as a child? Well, mine was a little pink doll called Jane and Jenny. It was given to me by my uncle when I was about 3 years old. And that was the only doll I ever had. Well, the good thing is that I still have not just the doll, but also the warm memories associated with it. Today, my little boy has way too many toys, and I thought that another toy for Christmas, will only add to his clutter collection and not to his childhood memories.
Christmas Activities for the Whole Family!
Christmas is a the happiest time of the year for kids and adults alike. Christmas enthusiasm is infectious across the world, especially for kids. Counting down the days, writing letters to Santa, baking treats in the kitchen, decorating the home and shopping trips to stores – the list goes on and on.
The Cookie Tradition and Christmas Desserts
Now, who doesn’t leave out cookies and milk for Santa on Christmas eve? Duh! Ever wondered when and how this tradition came into being? Well, during the great depression, kids were encouraged to be generous by leaving out goodies for Santa. And this continues till date. But thanks to globalization and international cultures, we’re able to enjoy different types of cookies and Christmas desserts all through Christmas and New year!
