Gifts From the Heart (Not From the Wallet)

The spirit of the holidays is about giving, not spending money. Although at times, this becomes hard to remember.

Here is a tip from the Kid Scoop News Librarian on a cool way to give gifts that warm the heart and make your children feel special and doesn’t cost a cent!

“Select some books from the library!” says Jim Silverman, the Kid Scoop News librarian. “Wrap them up and tuck them under the tree.”

Of course, you have to return them after a couple of weeks. But by then, the books are read. A wrapped library book provides all the joy of a gift, costs no money and after your child has lost interest in it—you don’t have to wonder where to store it.

NOTE: This is a great way for your kids to give gifts to family members without worrying about the cost!
