The Big White Farmhouse

intentional living, little by little

July 13, 2011

(giving} Color a Smile

One of the reasons I love the Internet so much is the ease in which information is spread.  I found out about this awesome non-profit from this post.  On their website, Color A Smile has a variety of coloring pages that you can print out and send back to them.  They, in turn, will pass them out to nursing homes and retirement homes – anyone in need of a smile.  Such an easy way to give! 

My kids are little, but they are starting to understand what it means to give to others, so I knew this would a perfect project for our family.  I told M and D that there were some Gramma’s and Grampa’s who didn’t have any kids to draw them pictures, so we were going to color some for them!  The boys jumped right on board and they colored quite a few!  Some will be going to our own grandmothers who need a little cheer and the rest will be mailed off to Color a Smile!
