Dear Friends,

November is a busy time as we all start to prepare for winter, as well as prepare for the upcoming holiday season. There is so much to do, lists to tackle, gifts to purchase, and fun to be had as well.

If you are just starting to get into the spirit of the season and are looking for some fun activities or events in your local community that you and your Little, family, or friends can take part in, be sure to download our Little Big Activity App f
or lots of great ideas and event listings. You can also check out our Pinterest page for recipes, craft ideas, and much more. If you have any ideas you'd like to share with us, please do. We'd love to hear them and share them!

If you are about to start planning your holiday gathering, whether it be with family, friends, or colleagues and are considering wrapping your party in a great cause, check out our Start Something this Holiday Season article below for ideas on creating an event that will also positively impact your community. 

We will continue to share with you great offers, updates, and fun ideas on activities and events, and welcome your input as well. In the meantime keep warm, and we look forward to celebrating the upcoming season with you!
