Life is about to get a lot more kind…the 100 Acts of Kindness Challenge is starting soon!
If you have been wanting to do more acts of kindness with your kids this is one of the best ways to start. If you were part of our 24 Random Acts of Christmas Kindness countdown this a great way to reinforce and carry on the good you did over the holidays. Doing 100 acts of kindness is good for everyone!
Each year Toddler Approved hosts a 4 week kindness extravaganza and I am thrilled to be her co-host again!
Our goal is to do small and simple acts of kindness in our homes, neighborhoods, communities that help teach our kids that no act of kindness is too small. Everyone can be kind. Everyone can make a difference.
Really. We totally and completely believe that and are here to help you along the way!
We’d LOVE to have you join us and pledge to do 100 acts of kindness over the 4 week challenge.
If you think 100 acts of kindness sounds overwhelming , don’t worry! We will be there to support you. I even have a huge printable list of 100 acts of kindness for kids.

Awesome, Megan! I love how the ideas range from simple (telling someone they’re special) to something grand (like taking treats to the fire department). I had a list of 35 random acts of kindness too and going through that list felt very inspiring.
