Children must be taught the art of giving gifts graciously by their parents. After children have been broken of the belief that
all gifts belong to them, they need to learn that giving a good gift does not mean spending a lot of money. In fact, some of the best gifts are the ones that give a part of yourself or your time away. Since little children often do not have money, they can create gifts that have more meaning than simply buying a box of chocolates at the store. This year, why not ask your children to create a “Gift Certificate Box” for that older family member’s birthday. The box can contain certificates for doing chores (such as “I will help you rake your yard”) or for simply expressions of affection (such as “This card is good for one long hug”). Which sentence would be the BEST concluding sentence for this paragraph? A) Wrapping presents is a whole different topic that deserves a paragraph on its own.
B) Christmas and birthdays are the two occasions upon which gifts are most often traditionally given.
C) A “Gift Certificate Box” will not only be a source of joy and laughter for your family, it can also bring your family closer together.
D) Most children just want to buy things that they themselves would like to get as a present without really considering the interests of who the present is for.
