HO HO HO THE TIME OF GETTING 

& GIVING

Children at this time of year are usually heard asking and wishing for this thing or that thing. Sometimes the amount of presents they want can be overwhelming for a parent and especially SANTA.  They need to realize that yes some of the things they ask for will be delivered BUT maybe not all of the items.  The real lesson here is that they should be appreciative for whatever they do get.  They should also be taught at the youngest age that they should be giving presents also.  If they have a sibling(s) they should have the opportunity to go to the store and hand pick something for them.  They should also give a toy to TOYS FOR TOTS or whatever charitable organization is in your community.
