Stoogles’ Birthday: Coming Up Fast

Hi! It’s Salley. Wow. Is Stoogles ever excited about his birthday, or what? Googles love parties – that’s for sure! Everybody has been talking about the party and shopping for gifts for him. I know Cowabelle and Roberta were thinking of going in together to get him a new skateboard and they were going to custom paint it. Polly said she saw a cool shirt in the Big City and she was going to see if they have something similar in the KinzStyle Outlet. Alex wants to get him a science book and Sparky said he hasn’t decided yet because there is just too much to choose from in his Uncle Arte’s Curio Shop. He better hurry up!

I think that Stoogles is going to love all of those gifts, but I’m having a really hard time deciding what I want to get for him. He is my best friend after all. The thing is I really want to be environmentally responsible this year. I want to get Stoogles an environmentally friendly gift. I was thinking that I could plant a tree for him in the Caring Valley, but I kind of want to give him something he could have to keep, you know? Then I saw this cool windmill and I thought that might be neat. He could use it to charge his computer. I could get him some seeds from the W Shop so he could start his own garden. Whatever I get him I know that I am going to sew a fabric bag to wrap it in so that it can be re-used over and over for wrapping gifts.

But what do you think? Do you have any good ideas for eco-friendly gifts?
