In #Christmas2021, why not tell family you'd love second hand gifts for your kids?
It reduces demand for virgin #plastic & gives pre-loved items new life ♻️ This positively impacts #climatechange & #plasticpollution. It's what showing kids love at Christmas should be about 😘

Unsurprising but newly relevant: A 2019 study found that when parents feel "pressured, inadequate, & isolated," they have less energy for their child and are more likely to "impose their own agenda on their child" rather than supporting his/her autonomy: is.gd/k96uH7

I could not be prouder of the country I live in 🇻🇳 & its innovative & community-centered approaches to the prevention of #COVIDー19. Here’s our G1 team showing their moves to remind Ss the importance of #handwashing #virtuallearning @ssischool #wearessis – at Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam
We love this handwashing dance from Vietnamese dancer, Quang Đăng.
Washing your hands with soap and water is one of the first steps to protect yourself from #coronavirus.
