Gifts with Eternal Value: Teaching Kids About True Giving
Children sparkle at the thought of presents, but as parents, we’re called to guide them toward a deeper truth: real giving flows from love, compassion, and the heart of Jesus. Before they can understand how to give, they must see why—and it begins with the greatest gift ever given: “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son.” When kids grasp that Jesus’ whole life was an offering, it plants the seeds of generosity. Through Bible stories, everyday modeling, and simple opportunities to share, we teach them that giving isn’t about the size of the gift but the love behind it. And as we celebrate their small acts of kindness, we help them store treasures that last forever.
