The holiday season is officially upon us and in keeping with the spirit of giving I’m sharing with you 12 Ways to Spread JOY Though the Holidays!
**NOTE: The Giveaway has ended!
But before we get to that, who would like to win $400 CASH to spend on Cyber Monday? Myself and a bunch of your favorite bloggers have gotten together to spread joy by collecting some cash to give away to ONE lucky reader. We are also giving $175 to Toys for Tots. Make sure you scroll all the way to the bottom of this post to get all of the details.
My favorite time of year is the holiday season. I love to make handmade gifts and baked goods to give out to my friends and for my kids to give out to their teachers. All of that is well and good but there are plenty of people who may just be in the need of some joy. Being a blessing to someone and spreading the joy doesn’t always have to come in the form of money. They are so many ways that we can reach out to those who need it most. And kindness goes a very long way.
I created this fun printable to give you some easy ideas of how you can help spread the joy this holiday season too!
12 Ways to Spread Joy Through the Holidays
Last year on Thanksgiving my girls and I got up super early and went to hand out hot chocolate, coffee, baked goods and gloves at a homeless shelter. We went with a woman from our church who goes on a regular basis. It was such a a great way to teach my kids to do for others. By the time we left we had women doing cartwheels and acting silly because my girls were doing those things. I loved watching my girls spread joy to others.

I am totally committed to bring joy to others especially during this holiday season. It doesn’t take big grand gestures, just doing little things everyday that help and make others smile. Trust me that the joy is returned to you tenfold.

I am a PreK teacher and in charge of our morale or social committee at school and I will put up little suggestions for random acts of kindness (a new one each day) to give others ideas of how to spread joy this holiday season. It should be fun!

I would like to help spread joy and turn around the negative attitudes that have persisted since the election.

Yesss! Me too! I feel like it has died down a bit but it’s definitely still there. :/
