National Random Acts of Kindness Day

2/14/2019

0 Comments

 
National Random Acts of Kindness Day will be celebrated on February 17th. This is a wonderful day to take time to show others your appreciation, or just show you care to random strangers. This is also a nice time to teach children about compassion for others without the expectation of receiving something in return. There are many ways to show your kindness:
 
  • Leave an inspirational note for someone to find
  • Invite someone who is alone over for dinner
  • Buy a coffee for the person behind you in line
  • Let someone go in line before you
  • Start up a conversation with a stranger
  • Write a special thank you to a food server to leave with the bill
  • Donate some of your possessions
  • Text, call or write a note to an old friend and tell them how much they meant in your life
  • Bring your co-workers an extra treat
  • Offer to help run an errand for a busy friend or neighbor
  • Give someone a book you think they might like
  • Let someone else have the good parking spot or seat on the bus/train
  • Give someone a compliment
  • Visit a nursing home
  • Offer to babysit for a family or friend
 
It is always important to remember that the act itself is not what truly matters, but rather the intent behind the act. “No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.” (Aesop)

Happy National Random Acts of Kindness Day!

-Michelle Rehse, Teacher, Celebrate the Children
