We’re Alike and We’re Different
Embrace similarities and differences with this activity.
Print the page and help kids think of a friend to describe (or, kids can complete a page in pairs). Fill in the circles with things that only they like, things that only their friend likes, and things they both like. Point out that friends can introduce us to new things that we never knew we liked. If everyone liked the same things, we’d never try anything new—things might get a little boring!

See You Later Alligator

Cloud Watching
Spending time outside can feel like a “reset” on the day.
