Have you gotten gifts wrapped for your family and friends? Maybe made cookies for your childs teachers, the mailman, to show your thanks? I bet I know the present you are missing!
Have you given thanks to Mother Nature this Christmas? Thank God for our beautiful home – earth? I try to take my daughter outside for walks in nature fairly frequently, and we talk about how its our responsibility to care for the earth, and to treat it well.
I try to teach my daughter how important it is to take care of the earth, and I’m thankful to Direct Energy for sponsoring this post, so I can tell you about the easiest and cheapest Christmas present you can give this year! And quite possibly the most important one!
You can be responsible for the planting of a brand new tree! And it wont cost you anything! Here is how…
New Leaf Energy & Pablo B. Green, their loyal tree frog mascot – will be planting 1 new tree for every new Facebook Fan “Like” they receive through 12/23/13!
That means you can spend no money, and practically no time – and give the world a better future! Help by #PlantingWithPablo!
How do you teach your children to take better care of the planet? I’d love to know!

About Shannon SchmidShannon traded in her sensible NYC TV producer shoes (they were best for taking the subway), for a pair of Texas Cowboy boots when she married her best friend! He's at fault for making this Yankee a Texan! Shannon writes about all things that make a house a home. Her chief blogging inspiration is being the proud & slightly neurotic mom of a preschool age daughter.
You can find Shannon on Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram and her new favorite place to hang out, Google+.
That’s awesome! For us, we try to unplug some unused electronics when we don’t use them (microwave, coffee pot) and we reuse some cardboard boxes for play time 🙂
I think this is a great program. I shared our tips for a greener world as well 🙂
Love this idea. (And your dog is adorable.)
