How To Get Your Family

In The Giving Spirit

 

Don’t you just LOVE the holiday season? There are so many fun and festive crafts and recipes to try and parties and events to attend. But with all of the busyness and chaos, it can be easy to forget the real reason for the holiday season. We’re always looking for ways to help get our kids focused on GIVING instead of GETTING throughout the holidays, and we’re all about making more meaningful family memories.  So we decided to create some…

Printable Service Bucket Lists!

First, we need to give a really big shout-out to our crazy talented designer, Kensie Kate! We just adore her hand-lettered designs and she is a pro at turning any of our creative visions into reality, so we had to commission her to design these for us. (By the way, if you haven’t checked out her shop you NEED to – like right now. It is just brimming with darling adorableness!) 
 

She even created THREE different versions just for you!  Below you’ll find a…

    • Thanksgiving Service Bucket List
    • Christmas Service Bucket List
    • Generic Service Bucket List (for ANY time of year)

 

They are FULL of ideas to get your family doing service throughout the holiday season! We even provided BLANK versions in case you want to personalize them and come up with your own ideas as a family. {You could even frame them and write on the glass with a dry erase marker – that way you can use them year after year! What a fun tradition that would be.}
