There's no better feeling than that of giving to others—I've always felt that way. I love shopping for presents, I happily give things away whenever I can, and I'm always on the lookout for unique gifts that will bring a smile to someone's face. I'm the first to pass on clothes that no longer fit, or baby gear we're no longer using. I love to share with relatives and friends; it makes me feel really good.
While I’m trying really hard this season to teach my daughter that there’s more to the holidays than presents, and toys, and STUFF—I must admit there is something completely heart-warming about watching her open a wrapped present and get totally excited about what’s inside. Especially when I know I’ve chosen well and I get a reaction like this one...
If you’re looking for some quality TV to enjoy as a family… a show that will inspire your kids to get off the couch and do something with their own two hands…a show that celebrates the importance of giving back and getting involved…then you’ll love GIVER!
Last month Erica Ehm and Caroline Fernandez joined 18,000 young people and educators at the Air Canada Centre for We Day, 2011, a high-energy event put on by Craig and Marc Kielburger’s Free The Children. She heard from musicians, activists and politicians all there to inspire global and local change. Erica left feeling super empowered and ready to get her own kids involved in this movement to make the world a better place!
