Simple Ways to Show Appreciation

Have you thought of leaving a note for your mail carrier?  I'll bet it would really brighten his/her day if a note appeared from a child saying 'Thank you!"

Have you thought of donating old books to your local public library or doctor's office?

Have you thought of planting flowers at your local park?  (get permission first, but many parks would welcome new flowers and little 'workers' to help plant them!)


Happy Giving!

One For One

Toms shoes (www.toms.com) aren't only stylish and comfortable - they also give a pair of shoes to a person in need for every pair purchased.  As of September 2010, they donated 1,000,000 pairs of shoes to people in 20 different countries.  I love the little girls styles!

Does Your Family Love Animals?

For $50 you can adopt one of more than a hundred different animals with the World Wildlife Fund – www.worldwildlife.org - and your child gets a matching stuffed toy.  What a great birthday or holiday gift!!!
