Mindfulness: Acts of Kindness

As an individual or with your group, consider what actions might be simple acts of kindness. Things such as opening doors, giving someone a compliment, and picking up someone else's trash are great examples. What other simple acts of kindness are there?

Illustrate how small acts of kindness add up by making a kindness chain. One Roots & Shoots educator suggest using pieces of yarn for each act and then tying them together. Another idea is to make cut-out shapes and write the acts of kindness on them to display. Either way, create something that demonstrates how simple acts of kindness combined mean big, positive change.
