Seeds for Good
An activity page reminding children that even little acts of kindness can make a big difference.
Children can help good things happen! Help children think of two things they want for the world or your community and write down what they say. Help them think of one way they can make those things come true and write it down.
For example:
- I want the world to be safe and clean for all living things/I am going to put garbage in the garbage can.
- I want to make a new friend/I am going to share a toy with them.
- I want everyone to have enough healthy food/I am going to collect coins to donate to a food pantry.
Then invite children to draw a flower growing from each seed.
