Elves of Kindness

During the Christmas season, your family can pretend to be elves and perform acts of kindness. Here are some ideas that you might be interested in: anonymously leave a gift on someone’s doorstep, send a well deserving family a Christmas card with a gift card inside and do no write your return address on the envelope, dress up as Santa and his elves and deliver toys and food to a family in need, under the cover of darkness decorate an outdoor tree in your neighbor’s yard, anonymously send some Christmas flowers, send a Christmas thank you card to the mail carrier, shovel or plow someone’s snowy driveway before they get home from work, carry wrapped Christmas candy to pass out when you’re in public, deliver $1 Christmas items to people in the hospital, fill a stocking and hang it from someone’s front door knob.
