Hugs All Around
This printable shows Elmo spreading kindness through a comforting hug.
Showing kindness can be as simple as giving a big hug! Read this story with your child before bed, in the morning during breakfast, or on the go. Especially during rough moments, a reminder of love and warmth can keep kids smiling. As you’re reading, you might ask the following questions:
- How did Elmo’s hug make Zoe and Alan feel?
- How did Elmo feel when he got a hug from Mommy and Daddy?
- Who do you know that gives good hugs?
