A Recycled Christmas

Picture
Where do all the unwanted toys really go? Unfortunately, there is no island of misfit toys, so discarded toys all end up in one place – THE DUMP. 
 
Santa and the elves are hard at work preparing new toys for Christmas... that is until Santa sees that children are throwing all their old toys away to make room for bigger, better presents! Saddened that perfectly good toys are being thrown in the trash, Santa decides to take action to save the toys and recycle them for children who are less fortunate.

MORE ABOUT A RECYCLED CHRISTMAS...

A Recycled Christmas is a fresh approach to traditional Christmas stories that not only educates, but entertains children while providing a memorable holiday tale. 

I am very excited about the potential A Recycled Christmas has to educate young children about the importance of recycling.  Environmental awareness and "go green" efforts are becoming important topics in today's world, but it's not necessarily a subject that all parents discuss with their young children.  A Recycled Christmas offers a unique opportunity to parents and teachers to share this idea with children through a story theme that they can get excited about - Christmas! 

The book also encourages children to see the worth in "old things" and while they themselves may have grown tired of something,  someone else may really appreciate having that old toy or game.  In this idea, I hope to encourage kids to think of others who may be less fortunate as well as help them gain an appreciation for the things they do have. 

It seems we live in a disposable world where new and better is always just around the corner and people line up to get the latest phone, game system or computer.  Children are exposed at such an early age to this way of thinking and I feel it is important for kids to recognize the value in what they have and to not take things for granted.
