We have been doing Operation Christmas child for several years now, but this year we decided to pack 2 shoe boxes - one for each of our boys. The tradition I really enjoy about this is that we all go as a family to the store to pack the shoe boxes. It is a great way to teach the boys about giving to others who don't have as much.
Brody enjoyed picking out the stuff for the boxes. Now don't get me wrong we had to reel him in several times that this was stuff for someone else not him. It was a great learning experience and it is something that we are able to talk about to help him remember about others less fortunate than we are.
