Alternative giving

Hello, little one! Today we will learn about alternative giving. This is a way of giving gifts that is different from the traditional way where you buy something and wrap it up in pretty paper.

With alternative giving, instead of giving a physical gift, you give something that will help someone in need. For example, you can make a donation to a charity in someone's name. Or you can give a gift that will help people in a different part of the world, like buying a goat or a cow for a family in need.

This kind of giving is special because it helps others who may not have everything they need, and it's a way to make people happy in different ways. And the best part is that there are so many different ways to do it, so you can always find a way to give that works for you.
