One of our advent calendar activities is to select some toys to take to the charity shop - I'm thinking of keeping this up every couple of months in 2010. I'm also encouraging the kids to be more discerning in what they aquire: we've just been to a school fete where they had a tight budget to spend on goodies. I was impressed with how they thought about their purchases carefully - made a different that they were spending 'their' money rather than a parents. http://nurturestore.co.uk/advent-calendar-activities We’ve had a big clear out of my daughter’s room this weekend — I’m sure she gets a more peaceful night’s sleep without all the clutter.
