As part of our resources to help you and others Simplify the Holidays, we've created a set of pre-packaged slides that you can use to make presentations in your community. This comprehensive slideshow offers tips and ideas for celebrating the year-end holidays in a less-stressful, more meaningful, and simpler way.
The presentation includes:
- Useful facts and figures on holiday consumerism and shopping trends
- Interactive questions and visualization exercises for your audience
- Descriptions of helpful New Dream resources, including our free "More Fun, Less Stuff" gift catalog and SoKind, our online non-material gift registry
- Tips from other New Dreamers about how they simplify their holidays
- Suggestions for tackling common holiday challenges, like busy schedules, too much stuff, and too much spending
- Tips for having simpler holidays with kids, and ideas for family holiday service projects
