IDEAS FOR A LIGHTER FOOTPRINT ON HOLIDAYS LIKE CHRISTMAS:
-Create a homemade christmas tree out of natural materials from nature around you (like driftwood)
-wrap gifts in recycled packing paper and hemp twine, or reuse wrapping paper from last year that was opened carefully. And instead of plastic bows, use fresh flowers and leaves to garnish gifts!
-Purchase gently used but still good quality items from etsy, eBay, or craigslist.
-Simply purchase less stuff. Our children do not need 25 presents to feel loved and enjoy this holiday.
-Another way to purchase less material possessions is to give a non-material gift. Like 3 months of gymnastic lessons, dance class lessons, or karate lessons. Or create a treasure hunt for them like the example in this video. When it comes to giving gifts to friends, making food as a gift like a vegan or raw vegan pie is a wonderful way to say I love you.
-Try to void buying plastic toys (unless it is recycled plastic) and focus on wooden toys instead
