[quote=Anonymous]First explain the idea of gifts (I'm sure the child has received some) Then talk about why we give gifts: to make someone feel good Then talk about what would happen if we gave someone a gift and then later tried to take it back: the person would feel bad, the opposite of what we want. Finally talk about how it feels good to pick out a gift that will make someone we love happy. Lesson two is on lending - the idea that we can temporarily give someone something we already own, with the expectation that they will give it back, kind of like when we borrow things from the library. However, it's important to note that sometimes things get lost or forgotten and that if you really truly cannot bear the thought of losing an item, you should probably not lend it.[/quote]
