Giving Idea for kids

I have seen a couple of posts on here about what to do to teach kids about helping others and the community. Reilly's class just did this project and it was a hit. I have put the link in below but basically its an organization that helps make kids b days special.

We bought the party supplies, hats, paper goods, decorations and candles. In Reilly's class they did one for a boy and one for a girl and all the kids were asked to donate.

We also decided ON their b day part of their present was to make a b day box for another child. Its a ncie way to keep up the giving spirit all year long.

Re: Giving Idea for kids

  • Thanks for posting - I love that idea!!  I am going to bring it up to our Young Adult MInistry in our parish because we (and the youth groups) are always looking for service-oriented ideas to do as a group... this is such an important lesson to teach!

  • I love this idea!  I just sent the link to work.  We will definitely incorporate this in our employee engagement programs.  I may also "borrow" your idea of having the boys create a box on their birthday!  Love it!
