A Covid Christmas gift lesson: Experiences matter more than stuff, Ilene Prusher writes for NBCNewsTHINK.
As we coped with the loss of loved ones and mourned for social gatherings that didn’t involve putting attendees on mute, we came to realize something that gets lost when we talk about gift-giving: What really matters is meaningful experiences with people we love. Giving and receiving presents is one such experience — and this holiday season we have an opportunity to extend that time together beyond watching someone’s face as they tear the wrapping off their booty.
My husband has been battling against the holiday tradition of overconsumption for years. He makes sure to find just the right gift by setting up a registry for our kids onMy relatives, I suspect, roll their eyes at it. My parents and my siblings still reflexively bring big, beautifully wrapped things for each kid at the family Hanukkah party. Which — full disclosure — I still do regularly as well, since most of my children’s cousins include these items on their wishlists.
It’s rare that my kids, age 9 and 11, remember what they received last year or the year before. They do seem to remember, however, every time someone took them out to do something fun.
