This Holiday Season, Give the Gift of Literacy...and Culture!

The holidays are fast approaching and just like most of you, I have been busy searching for gifts. Regalitos not only for amigos y familia, but also for my children. Every year, I look for unique items to give those that I love. And one of my favorite places to explore is the Latino Family Holiday Gift Guide.

This is our third year to participate in the guide, which is a joint effort by small business owners to present some of their best products for Latino families.

I hope you will stop by there and take a look at the original items, many of which reflect our diverse and beautiful cultures.

Another thing that is influencing my gift giving choices this year, is the educational impact of the object. At least for my children, I am being careful to choose items that I feel are benefiting them in one way or another. I want less frivolous toys and more valuable games, books, and products that develop literacy, math skills, creativity, etc. Books are pretty high on the list, naturally, and this week the LBBC will be sharing with you our top books for the Latino family's home library. 

We also have a couple of quick giveaways coming up this week in order to provide you with some additional presents for the special children in your life.

¡Un abrazo grande a todos!  May you have joyful holiday season!
