We're parents.
And with Christmas being such a prominent holiday in our homes, we wanted to instill in our children a simple - but sometimes difficult to remember - idea: there's nothing inherently wrong with wanting things for yourself, but being a blessing for those around you is equally important.
Many stories and traditions emphasize to children that they should be good for the primary purpose of getting something - such as presents - in return. When discussing the early concept of this story, we set out to craft a tale that would get children excited about giving back to their families and communities - in addition to also acknowledging the joy that comes with receiving gifts themselves.
The Carol of the Coin is a beautifully illustrated children's book that conveys this concept while explaining the origins of The Christmas Coin.
