    Season's Greetings!!! I'm here to spread some holiday cheer and make a special child's wish come true.

    The "Kids Ask, Community Delivers" initiative involves the adoption of letters that have been written to the Big Guy from the North Pole. There are multiple angels that could use your help, so read Matt's post to offer even more gift ideas that will be posted in different communities.

    The Welcome Community is shopping for Nell. Here are some gifts that would bring joy to her heart:

     

     

    The Welcome Community is all about making grand entrances, so do you all have any recommendations for this budding artist? 

    What are your favorite children's books and board games? (I enjoyed reading Carmen San Diego and playing Clue as a youngster, I'm probably showing my age here...)

    I'm not the most artistic person (keep this between us, lol) so any suggestions on cool crafts would be extremely beneficial, too. 

    Please leave your ideas in the comments below and let's make Nell's holiday one for the books!

    Hi there, it's Community Elf Lin! 

    I was wondering around Santa HQ this morning and found a few items stashed away in the break room, maybe these could help put a smile on Nell's face! 

    1. Make Your Own Monster - Arts and crafts kit for a new creepy, crawly, and cuddly friend!
    2. Create Your Own Storybook - Special kit for a kid who loves creativity and reading!

    I used to love face painting when I was younger.  The craft seems to have evolved since I last used it.  I see crayons (for acne prone skin) which may be a nice gift.

    Thanks Anne, evolution has occurred for sure with the face paints!  I'm sure Nell will appreciate this being gentle on her skin.

    I just bought some board games at Target for my kiddos and they are buy one, get one 50% off until Wednesday, Dec. 6!

    For arts & crafts, I like anything washable :) And I think every kid needs a good set of markers and good paper!

    Thank you all for the amazing gift suggestions, I have no doubt Nell will enjoy everything she receives! 

    To ensure the big guy up North can deliver gifts on time, Community Elf @Nicole Milliken will acquire Nell's gifts and get them sent out asap. 

    Once again, many thanks to you all for making a difference. Seasons Greetings!!!

    Thanks, everyone, for helping us shop for the Kids Ask, Community Delivers program! Did the packages get wrapped and make it to the post office on time? FInd out in this quick update from the Community News Crew.

    You can find previous holidays specials in our "Something for Everyone" playlist on YouTube.

    Cheers!
