Sustainable and Ethical Christmas Gifts For Kids

This Christmas looks like no other Christmas before – what a year! 2020 will definitely be a year we never forget. With lots of shops that are selling non-essential goods only being closed, I tried to make sure I promote small and independent businesses and brands this Christmas more than ever.

I’ve got fantastic items coming from indie brands and small businesses, and most of them are also either eco-friendly or ethically produced – or both! Shopping local and with online small businesses are important for me and for all of us. They play an important role in communities and they have a major economic impact.

As for the green and ethical aspect, these are very important issues for me. I’d like to create awareness, because making conscious choices when deciding about a purchase is more possible than ever these days. We can do better, by making positive choices for people and planet. Money is a vote which you can use every time you go shopping. By using your spending power wisely you can help to create a better, healthier and greener world.

With this guide I wish you a very merry Christmas season. We’re all here to make a difference and spread kindness. Peace & love.

This is a Sustainable and Ethical Christmas Gifts for Kids Gift Guide.
