A couple things I have noticed with my dd:
- My just turned 8 yo was happy to do donations to an cat adoption shelter instead of birthday gifts because it was the shelter we got our kitties from, and we were able to go give the kitties the gifts in person - she also got a very nice thank you card afterward.
- We have been able to sell back used books in order for her to buy the next book in a favorite series. (not charity, but certainly decluttering.)
- We have been able to put some beloved, but outgrown toys and books aside for dd's younger cousin.
I would so love to go through more of dd's stuff but I think these kids are begging for relevance and context. Good luck on your decluttering.
