Festivals are such a good time to share love and gifts! I love to go and meet kids and the elderly on every festival that I can to spread love an happiness in any small way possible.
The smile I see on the faces of the people makes the festival even more joyous!
This time for Easter, I have decided to make baskets and take them to an orphanage here in MI. I haven't ever done this before so I am definitely looking for ideas online and asking people to help me too. I have bought a few baskets already and some gifts to give away to the kids with a few of my friends so we can talk about Easter, it's significance and maybe even hide a few eggs for them to find.
I am trying to find as many ideas as I can to stuff the baskets with chocolates and gifts. I want to make sure I make this Easter a memorable one for the kids at the orphanage and they don't feel less loved. I am hoping to get together with three other friends and go there the Sunday and spend the entire day with them, playing and listening to them, maybe reading to them so they feel happy about the festival and have a good time.
Any suggestions to make it better would be greatly appreciated! :) Happy Easter in advance!
OMG those baskets are brimming with goodies!You've done a great job with the baskets, and a great thing for others. I admire your ambitions to help and serve others. I'm sure it fills your soul to see the joy in those kids' eyes. You're doing something wonderful, and creating happy memories for kids- Awesome!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a wonderful idea. I'm am sure that the people who receive these will appreciate and remember them. It really is the small things in life which have the biggest impact. My son received the cutest Valentine this year. It was a sandwich bag filled with teddy grams and gummy bears. It had a computer generated card that said "I like you beary much. You are beary sweet." You are such a GENEROUS person. I hope you inspire others. It could lead to a lot more happiness and a lot more smiles. You truly do deliver happiness.
ReplyDeleteThose baskets are going to bring a lot of joy to any kid. Nice job!
