Giving material gifts is fine, but do you absolutely have to buy new? Certain items like toys, books, clothes, movies, and music make wonderful secondhand gifts, because in addition to the pleasure of giving, you're giving these objects a second life! It's a gentle step towards a more sustainable and eco-responsible way of consuming.

#1: Christmas, from Tradition to Transition
#2: Eco-friendly and minimalist Advent calendar ideas
