- Give of your time
There are so many organizations that are looking for helping hands big and small, especially during the holiday season.
Volunteer at a homeless shelter, food drive, or senior center as a family to show how the gift of service is just as important as the gift of items or money.
Showing our children the different environments other people are in, can help them feel thankful for luxuries big and small, like a roof over their heads or their comfy beds.
The family can show gratitude to neighbors, friends, and family as well by lending a hand with outdoor chores or a community meal.
Encompassing others in the good fortune also helps bring a positive holiday memory for all involved.
