About the book-
In a world where people spend more time engaging through screens than in real-life interaction, showing basic human kindness can feel like a lost art. Be Kind offers children aged 5 and up simple, actionable things they can do in their daily lives that help them cultivate kindness toward others and grow into people with the capacity to make the world a kinder place.
In Be Kind, kids learn that kindness is a quality that can be expressed in ways other than merely being “nice,” including standing up for someone or something, engaging in a community, showing compassion toward other beings, and expressing gratitude. With joyful illustrations and kid-friendly writing, this idea book serves as a delightful, easy-to-read collection of 100 concrete activities kids and their families can pick and choose from and act out in their daily lives, whether it’s being the first person to say good morning, offering compliments, shoveling an elderly neighbor’s driveway, learning to say hello in different languages, or sending a card to someone — no special occasion required. On every page, Be Kind empowers kids to make the world a better, kinder place, one action at a time.
My thoughts-
There is nothing in the world more important to me as a mother than that my children are kind. Be Kind is exactly the type of book I like to have around my house for my kids. They enjoy non fiction and I try to model to them to always be kind to others, and this book will take care of both of those things. There are some great ideas in here to create acts of kindness from the very simple like saying good morning or smiling at strangers, to acts of service like doing yard work for a neighbor. There are ideas in here that I wouldn't have thought of so I think it is a good book for children and adults alike. Everyone should have a copy of this awesome book in their home. You can pick up a copy this summer in June.
