Like many, I’m sure, this weekend was a whirlwind of Christmas activities, mainly involving my husband and me playing taxi drivers for the kids as they bounce from one Christmas party to another. Honestly, their social lives put ours to shame! On Saturday, we made our annual trip to pick out the Christmas tree—fitting that I later realised it was Small Business Saturday. For years, we’ve been getting our Christmas tree from the same place, never once thinking of going anywhere else. There’s nothing like the fresh scent of pine trees, twinkling lights and a bit of Michael Bublé to get us in the Christmas spirit! The team at Stoneybrook Nursery goes the extra mile and then some to create a magical experience—especially for the kids. These small, family-run businesses are true gems and brilliantly showcase that in a world where it is easy to believe all that glitters is gold, it’s important to remember that it’s not flashy marketing or promotions that build loyalty. It’s the relationships, trust, and memorable experiences that keep people coming back. So thank you, Stoneybrook Nursery! Not just for our lovely Christmas tree, but for reminding me and all our fellow small business owners, to keep offering the best experience to your customers. It’s not glamorous, sounds too simple and is often not easy to do, but it is the thing that truly matters. #SmallBusinessSaturday #SupportLocal #ChristmasTraditions #CustomerExperience

🌎 Celebrating the Spirit of Giving: St. Nicholas Day What festive traditions does St. Nicholas Day hold in your heart? Observed on December 6, St. Nicholas Day is about the joy of generosity and the power of small, meaningful acts of kindness. Rooted in centuries-old traditions, it honors St. Nicholas, the patron saint of children and sailors, whose legacy inspires us to give selflessly and embrace the magic of the season. How is it celebrated around the world? - In the Netherlands and Germany: Children leave their shoes out at night, hoping to find small gifts, sweets, or even poems in the morning. - In France: The day includes parades, storytelling, and the exchange of gifts. - In America: St. Nicholas Day is a quieter celebration, with traditions often tied to family heritage. Simple Ways to Celebrate St. Nicholas Day: - Give Thoughtful Gifts: It’s not about extravagance—small tokens like handwritten notes, baked goods, or keepsakes can make someone's day. - Spread Kindness: Pay it forward with small gestures—buy a coffee for someone, leave an encouraging note, or volunteer your time. - Create Family Traditions: Share stories about the meaning of the day, bake together, or enjoy a meal with loved ones. - Incorporate Accessibility: Include everyone in the celebrations! For example, use inclusive recipes, accessible storytelling formats, and ensure digital invites or messages are readable for all. Why It Matters: Celebrating St. Nicholas Day isn't just about honoring the past—it's about creating a ripple effect of kindness and joy in today’s world. These small moments of connection and generosity remind us of the collective strength in unity and empathy. Let’s keep the spirit of St. Nicholas alive by spreading a little more kindness every day. ❤️ What’s your favorite St. Nicholas Day tradition?
