Delightfully Festive Earth-Friendly Holiday Downloads
Do something fun for the Earth with friends & family this holiday season!
There are a lot of things about the holidays I love – reconnecting with family, taking a break from work and technology, spending extra time outdoors, eating an above-average amount of cookies, and recalibrating my brain. There are also some things I don’t like about the holidays – the stress and pressure to host a big gathering or make the perfect meal, the consumerism and waste that comes along with gift giving, and, of course, too much football.
Regardless of your holiday traditions, I’m excited to share a little something I created to make your holidays more fun, relaxing, and thoughtful with a pack of Earth-Friendly Holiday Downloads.
Holiday Zen Coloring Page
Grab your markers, crayons or colored pencil and a mug of hot cocoa…it’s time to color and relax! Engaging in art projects is an excellent way to relax and practice mindfulness, creativity, and self-expression. Print out this letter-sized coloring page and let the creative juices flow! If you want to share, I’d love to see what you come up with – tag me on instagram @highmountaincreative or email me at margo@highmountaincreative.com.
Earth Lovers Coupon Pack
The idea of gifting coupons for favors or chores is not a new idea. I put my own twist on coupon-gifting with an Earth Lovers Coupon Pack which includes coupons you can gift to friends and family for things like taking out the recycling and cooking a meal with local ingredients. This is a great way to reduce your holiday footprint while making sustainable practices exciting and novel.
Litter Cleanup Scavenger Hunt
If you’re feeling a little cooped up after those big holiday meals (or too much football), grab some friends or family members and host a Litter Cleanup Scavenger Hunt! This can be as simple as a ten-minute walk around your neighborhood or a day trip to a National Forest, see if you can find (and pick up!) all of the items on the scavenger hunt sheet. I’m even offering prizes to anyone who completes the scavenger hunt and sends me photos of their finds. Email margo@highmountaincreative.com with your completed list and I’ll mail you a surprise!
