Random Acts of Kindness Day

Today it is Valentines Day but on Thursday it is also Random Acts of Kindness Day! Started by the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation it is a day to promote being kind to others, which is definitely something the world needs more of.

Why is important to be kind to those around you? How do you feel when people are kind to you? And how do you feel when someone isn’t very kind?

Look at the quotes below. Think about why it is so important to be kind…

How could you be kind to others?

On Random Acts of Kindness Day it is a day to think of the different ways you can be kind to others. How could you put a smile on someone’s face? How could you cheer someone up if they were feeling sad? How could you be the highlight of someone’s day?

Here are some ideas we thought of…

Ask someone in the playground to play with you

Share your snack with your friend

Make someone laugh

Do something to help your Mum or Dad

Let someone go first in a game

Always say thank you

Tidy your bedroom

Help your friend if they are stuck with their work

Hold the door open for the person behind you

Tell someone they look nice

If something has fallen on the floor, pick it up

Let your brother or sister play with your toy

Give someone a cuddle

Give your last sweet to your friend

Try your best at school and make your teacher proud

Can you think of other ways you could be kind to someone?

On Random Acts of Kindness Day it is a day to go out of your way to be kind. What if everyone did this everyday? Wouldn’t it be a much nicer way to be!
