ways to spread holiday cheer through kindness!

By stacia hunt

​Who doesn’t LOVE Christmas? I definitely do! What’s not to love? Holiday cheer, Christmas cookies, being with your family... Sounds pretty great to me. Christmas is about all of those things and part of it is the gift of giving! Here’s some fun things you can do to give back to others for the holiday!

1. Candy Cane Bomb
This is super easy! All you have to do is get some cheap candy canes! Then go to a local store and find some cars! Next just put however many candy canes you want in their windshield wipers so they come out to a nice surprise when they are done shopping!

2. Share Christmas Cookies
The next thing is something my mom and I do every year! We find different recipes for Christmas cookies and then deliver them to people around our neighborhood. We also keep some for ourselves because then we can see if they should be passed out again next year.

3. Goodie Bags
Last but not least is something my mom organizes every year with some of her friends. She collects small things for single moms and dads to put in goodie bags for Christmas. She usually collects things like nail polish or coffee. Just useful things!

Christmas truly is the time for giving and these are just three things you can do for others during the holidays! Let us know if you did any of these things this Christmas and pass these ideas on to others! Merry Christmas!
