Give the Gift of Creativity

I've run across some websites lately the share lists of creative gifts you can give this holiday season. Instead of toys, consider giving a child such things as magic markers, colored paper, scrapbook scissors, glitter glue, craft foam...things that can be used to create a myriad of artistic masterpieces. The same holds true when it comes to adults...give such things as scrapbook supplies (for the scrapbook fanatic), a gift certificate to Home Depot or a yarn store or fish lure store, depending on the interests of the person you have in mind. For the wannabe artist, give art supplies. You get the idea. Other ideas for creative gifts include providing lessons, special family excursions and coupons for spending time together.

It may take a little extra thought, but this holiday season give gifts of creativity and gifts of memories.
