’Tis the season of giving! But not every gift comes with a bow—the best gifts usually don’t. With each passing holiday season, we bet you’ve seen that the most meaningful gifts are the gifts of time and attention. And that’s something we want to teach our kids, too. This week, Emily’s giving you three easy ways to teach kids to develop their giving muscles, to look around and see ways they can help not only their friends and family, but people in their community. Because the truth is, when we give our time and attention to others, we get a gift in return: we get to be part of something larger than ourselves. We get the gift of purpose.   Thanks to our episode sponsors!
