We love doing acts of kindness! I think small, simple, everyday acts can make a big difference and get kids into the habit of being kind. Last week we got a little crafty and made kindness stones to leave as an act of kindness for others in our community!
Kindness Stones Craft:
- rocks
- permanent markers
- a good place to make someone’s day
The kids created little stones to leave for a stranger to find at the park or on a walking path. Since they were meant to be left outside they used permanent markers so the art wouldn’t wash away.
We wrote “happy” words on the stones and left them out for someone else to discover!
It’s so empowering for kids to realize that something as simple as a rock can make a difference in someone’s day. Wouldn’t you smile if you discovered one?
