The “Gift of Giving” SeriesIt is easy to tell our children to share and as long as we are there to enforce it, they probably will. But, how do we inspire a spirit of generosity? How do we train up children who give to others, not because they are told to, but because they have a genuine desire to help people in need?
This month I have partnered with the Family Network to bring you some insightful and exciting ways to develop a giving heart in your children. Join us, as we “Give the Gift of Giving” to our families.
Give the Gift: Give back to your community as a family. Then leave a comment, add a photo to Facebook, or email me about it. You can also link up any ideas on how to give back with your family, favorite charities you support, or how to develop giving hearts. We will be featuring your posts throughout the holiday season! So, make sure you follow us and spread the word!This link up will be included in each post in the Series. That means your posts will be featured for a whole month!

Love this idea!! We focus on this idea during the holidays (and in general), so I love sharing this.
I absolutely love this idea and had been thinking about doing something like this for November and the holiday season. The hurricane threw me for a bit of a loop but I’m going to get back to brainstorming and get in on this!
Thanks for visiting me, following you back!
Great linky party! Will share this.
This is such a great idea. We can all use fresh ideas on how to raise great kids. Thank you for hosting this link-up. Looking forward to reading more.
I am your newest follower. I found you on Bloggy Moms.

I love being able to see others giving! It keeps the inspiration going! I am hosting a giveaway on my blog. The Christmas Angel is similar to The Elf on the Shelf yet inspires our children to give this Christmas season. It is an awesome tool to use that will be fun, exciting and let them use their imagination yet instilling in the lifelong lessons on giving! Please check out the post for more information on The Christmas Angel and to enter to win one! http://www.sweetsouthernmel.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-true-meaning-of-christmas-giveaway.html
