How do I convince my child that it is etter to receive ONE meaningful birthday present rather than many small ones?
Tell your child that he/she will now be in the driver’s seat. The birthday child gets to choose his/her own gift. And, even better, the birthday child gets to choose ONE charity to support and this means they will be helping other kids. Ask your child to think about the one gift that he/she would like to have from all his/her friends. Children might want a musical instrument, something electronic or a special item that may be costly and can be bought when all the guests contribute and the funds are pooled together. Your child is likely sensitive to environmental issues because of what he/she has learned at school. Tell your child that he/she can do something significant to help the planet by having an ECHOage party because all the packaging and plastic associated with many gifts is removed by receiving only one present.
