I'm Dreaming of a GREEN Christmas

Hi fellow Bloggers. Sorry that I have not posted lately. I've been very busy preparing KidsLoveAnimals.com for the holiday season, and I have also been producing and posting videos at YouTube.com and Google Video.

I'm dreaming of a GREEN Christmas this year! No, I don't mean a Christmas without snow. I mean a Christmas where shoppers consider the environment when buying gifts.
This holiday season, think GREEN, everytime that you buy a gift. Ask yourself, "is this gift harmful for the environment?" "Will this gift teach my children anything of about our planet?" "Will this present give anything back to make the world a better place?"

I admit that I've been guilty of going into debt, so that my kids will have lots of presents to open on Christmas Day. The sad reality is that most of the stuff that we buy, quickly becomes JUNK that takes up space in our house, ends up in a landfill, and does not teach our kids anything.

This year, look for gifts that support good causes. For example, Build-a-Bear has a series of stuffed animals that benefit the World Wildlife Fund. And KidsLoveAnimals.com has an "African Safari" DVD for children that benefits the Cheetah Conservation Fund (cheetah.org) and the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy (lewa.org) to help them save endangered species. You can also support the Cheetah Conservation Fund by shopping at their e-store at this link: http://www.cheetah.org/?nd=dept


In addition, you can find a list of responsible companies that deserve our support at 1% for the Planet.

When we support businesses that care about the environment, we give our children a brighter future, and that's a quality gift.

Happy Holidays!
