Green gifting

Hey there kiddo! Have you heard of green gifting? It's a really cool way to give a gift to someone while also taking care of the environment around us! Let me explain it to you like you're five.

When we talk about green gifting, we mean that we want to give gifts that are good for the planet. That means we try to choose things that won't hurt the environment or add to pollution. For example, instead of giving someone a plastic toy that they might only use for a little while before throwing away, we might give them a gift that they can use over and over again, like a nice cloth bag to carry their things in.

Another important part of green gifting is thinking about where the gift came from and how it was made. If something was made in a way that hurt the environment, we might not want to give it as a gift. Instead, we can look for things that were made using sustainable resources, which means that the materials used won't run out and harm wildlife or the earth.

Green gifting can also mean giving something that helps others take care of the environment, like a book about how to compost or a set of reusable straws to help cut down on plastic waste. By giving a gift like this, we're not only helping the person we're giving it to, but we're also doing our part to protect the planet.

So there you have it, kiddo! Green gifting is all about choosing gifts that are good for the environment, made in a sustainable way, and can help us take care of the planet we live on. Remember, taking care of the earth is something we all have to do, no matter how old we are!
