NEW Kindness at Home

We're excited to announce our new program for making kindness the norm at home!

At the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation, we believe kindness starts with one, and there is no "one" better than you (the parent or guardian to your kids) to start a kindness revolution at home. You have the power to set a kind tone for your entire household. What you do matters, and we are here to help. There's never been a better time to infuse more kindness at home!

With the Kindness at Home curriculum, you'll get:

  • Quick, convenient kindness activities for families of all ages,
  • Discussion topics, and
  • Journal prompts emailed right to you each week.

Each month covers a different kindness concept and offers more detailed activities and a final concept project—beyond the emails—to help you bring your family closer together through kindness.

Download the parent / guardian guide to read details on how the program works & what you'll be doing.

Fill your home with kindness.

ANNOUNCING OUR NEW KINDNESS CHALLENGE!

We've designed a fun kindness challenge to help make kindness the norm™ at home & in your neighborhood. Your challenge (if you choose to accept it) is to complete a series of kindness activities to fill in 60 'hearts'. Each act of kindness is worth one, two or three 'hearts' based on how challenging they are: one-heart activities are quick and easy, two-heart activities are more involved, and three-heart activities are challenging & will take more time.

Note: If you'd like to create your own booklet, here's a specially paginated PDF you can print, fold and trim into a 4.75" x 6.75" booklet. (Note: Your printer needs to be capable of double-sided printing for this to work.)

Here are the steps to create your own booklets:

  1. Print the above PDF using the double-sided printing feature of your printer. You should end up with 8 pages total.
  2. Note you might need to adjust your printer's settings (e.g. two-sided print / short vs. long edge) so the pages print correctly.
  3. Fold each page in half, then stack the folded pages to create a booklet. Check to make sure they are in the correct order.
  4. Optional: bind the booklet with a long-reach stapler, or use glue. You can also leave the pages unbound & it will work great.
  5. When the booklet is folded & laid flat, trim the excess paper using the trim guides on the front or back.
  6. Round the page corners with scissors to get the full 'booklet' effect.
