Encourage A Child

Do you know a child living in difficult circumstances; a girl or boy who is experiencing loss or grief, severe illness, or other really difficult issues? Have you wondered what you could do that could have significant impact? With the Encourage-A-Child gifts, you can help a child work through and move through the emotions these circumstances create.

Each package has a carefully chosen theme. It includes an item printed with one of my art pieces and a craft or activity that coordinates with the theme. I also include an optional written letter from me, "Aunty Mellie", but you can choose to write your own personalized letter. You are free to copy any of the ideas or specific phrases from my letters.

All 5 gifts will be mailed directly to you in 4 mailers and one tube, ready to mail or hand deliver as you choose. I encourage you to spread these gifts out, giving the child time to process each topic AND to hear regularly from you for a period of time (rather than just once).
