Those of us who are lucky enough to have everything we need, need to show (and teach our children) to show compassion to those who don't by helping in any way that we can. I am trying to find age appropriate ways to teach my 4 year old that not everyone is as lucky as we are. Any advice? You are so right!

She could really stretch a budget, and taught me the value of sales and coupons. She took advantage of the library, free and discount days at Parks and Museums (her work often hosted an employee day at the Zoo), and she'd pick up toys on clearance throughout the year so we'd always have a big Christmas, and were able to sponsor a Child through the Salvation Army. I think that was the biggest impact I had on appreciating what I had, being able to volunteer with the Salvation Army and sponsor a child every Christmas.
