Donate your Possessions:
Fill colors in their celebrations by donating them your possessions including a warm sweater or any of your clothes or shoes.
There are many kids who cannot afford anything on Christmas. Make your kids realize the importance of their possessions and ask them to put together all their oldies like their clothes, shoes and toys in a big sac and lend those to the needy kids.
