My son got this to give to an 8 year old friend as a gift. He browsed through it before wrapping and hardly wanted to give it away!

I am giving everyone I know this book for the holidays! It is such a great inspiration to give back to others even if you don't have a lot of money to give. The author highlights different ways that anyone can make the world a better place with case studies from each of the 6 giving models that she clearly delineates in Simple Giving. I love how at the end of each giving model she gives clear steps as to how each of us could get started on giving back. Great book! A book like this has been missing from the market, and I am so glad that Simple Giving is here!

I attend a weekly mom's group at church and this semester, we are doing the Make it Count series by Karen Stubbs. I was searching on here for a gift to give to the moms and found this. Since the inspirational messages on these cards are written by Karen Stubbs, I figured they would be a perfect little gift for them so I ordered a box.

There are a total of 51 cards in this box, all double-sided. On one side of the cards is an inspirational message about being a mom and how God is always there for us. On the other side is a Bible verse that goes along with that message. The cards are either a rose pink or green and they have a pretty design with flowers on them. The cards measure 2 1/4 inches by 3 3/8 inches so they are a bit smaller than playing cards. They come in a nice box and are made in China.

I was really excited to get these for my friends and they all loved them! It's amazing how a little gift can brighten someone's day and these are a great idea. Some of the messages are similar but if you are giving them out to friends, it should be fine. If they are for yourself, you can still enjoy them.

If you love to give others gifts like I do, these cards make great little gifts to hand out to other moms, stick in cards, or any other ideas you can think of. These are perfect for our mom's group since we are studying some material by Karen Stubbs and I know I would love to get a gift like this!

So I have one of those moms that... well just has a hard time expressing her affection for gifts that she isn't expecting. Now this normally wouldn't be a problem if she dropped hints about what she would like as a gift. This of course, is something she does not do.

Recently however, the bowl on her Cuisinart broke (I believe it was the handle) and since her Cuisinart was older than I was (I'm 37) I thought this would be the perfect gift. And it was, It fit perfectly and I actually got a voicemail from my mother about how much she loved the gift. Which is a lot better response than my other gifts have received.

EXCELLENT!  It was a great gift for those 'people' that have everything!  I buy a few of these every year for the Holidays, in case someone gives us an unexpected gift, and we need to quickly return the gesture.  I'm always have to have one or two left over so we can enjoy them after Christmas!

MANY years ago, a friend at work told me about sending proofed coins, in the year of the childs birth, as a baby gift.

What an idea!  I am delighted to share it, because I think it is unique.  It can be purchased before baby is born, because of the gifts, baby gender does not matter.  I have been doing this for almost 20 years, and I have no doubt that is the only baby gift where they remember who gave the coins to them!

The ONLY 'down' side is often the proofed sets are not available until the later part of the year.  When I ordered this set was surprised it was available!  I would often give (if the baby were born the early part of the year) an I OWE YOU as a gift, telling the new parents I was sorry I was late, the delay was unvoidable and when they saw what gift was they would understand why it was worth the wait!

What an awesome idea!  The gift was for a very special reason and the picture I was able to upload said it all!
Cheers to Amazon for such a great idea!  Will definitely use all the time now!

My daughter gave my husband and I this book 2 Christmases ago. We loved it so much that we have given copies as gifts to multiple people. I feel I should have an inventory of 5 or so copies to have on hand when I need it. My husband and I discussed gift giving before we got married. The family he grew up in did it very differently than my family did. We threw out the bad ideas, kept some of the good and added our own philosophies to decide how we would handle the matter in our new family. As the case with many Americans, we already have too many belongings as it is. The best gifts we can give to each other is time together, rather than just buying something so the receiver has something to unwrap.
On occasion a perfect gift idea does pop up. There is a gentleman, that I will refer to as Mr. Bob, who worked at the garden center here in town. For the 17 years I had known him since first going to the garden center when we moved here, he has been a rich resource for information, always greeted you with a warm smile,and remembered your name. He consoled me when my beloved step-father passed. Both Mr. Bob and my step-dad were avid birders and belonged to the Audubon Society for many years. He helped me choose the perfect tree to plant in memory of my step-dad. Last year I discovered that Mr. Bob was retiring. I called the Audubon Society to donate $50.00 in Mr. Bob's name as a retirement gift. The person at the society had a better idea of what to do with that money. Retirement usually means a drop in salary. This person put the $50.00 toward extending Mr. Bob's Audubon membership for another three years. What a wonderful idea!<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/The-Gift-of-Nothing-Special-Edition/dp/0316054410/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">The Gift of Nothing (Special Edition)</a>&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/The-Birds-of-America-Vol-I/dp/123589777X/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">The Birds of America Vol. I</a>&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Gift-Nothing-Special-Patrick-McDonnell/dp/0316054410/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">James John Audubon: The Making of An American</a>
