Love Is In The Air

1/30/2019

This is a page from our book, "Let's Be Kind" starring Warm-Hearted Walrus. How do you teach a child to be kind to oneself, to others and to the world we live in? With Valentines Day coming up, I wanted to share a few ideas to help teach kindness.......................

I'm doing this on our basement door at home, I'll add a heart with all three of our adult kids! Ages 38, 34 and 30, you're never to old to be loved, appreciated, acknowledged and adored for who you are.

If you work with a group of children, this is a fun visual! Look who is kind in our classroom! Use stationary to write about this! Available here in our Warm-Hearted Walrus Resource Book.

You can fill this clear baggie with candy of your choice, or how about some Gummy Worms? I'm certain any candy will do so long as you share them with those who also adore you!

Using a permanent marker write a child's name on the shovel and use during planting season. Or, make a fun 'mud pudding' using chocolate pudding, follow the recipe on the box, add Cool Whip to lighten it up and look like mud, then crunch some dark colored cookies like Oreo's and mix in the pudding. Add some Gummy Worms for some added fun!

Add a pretzel stick, plain or decorated to be the body of either of these Valentine candy ideas. Or, add long licorice to be the body of either of these Valentine candy ideas. Fill the clear baggie with a child's favorite candy or trail mix for a fun snack on Valentine's Day!

I made these hearts with my kids as a Room Parent years ago. We glued them to an open lunch bag, empty cereal box or large grocery bag, then taped them to their desks to collect their valentines.

Today my 5 year old and I met the Behavior Bear (who was very sweet) in a special program at our library. We also painted a creative picture and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves with Joni’s kindness, patience & creativity. Great experience for both parent & child. ❤️
Dear Ms.Downey,
"Super thanks for the great program you gave to all kids at Vernon Area Public Library today! My daughter learnt a lot and cannot stop discussing with me topics of good manners on our way home. She also asked me how to say all polite words in our native language. And she just hung the manners chart on her room. I really appreciate all positive impetus you promoted." Ivy Liu
"Great program for kids. Joni is amazing with kids, and so positive. I wish more kids would experience Character of Characters." Bet Mondroski
What an amazingly fun evening we had with Joni!! My 4th and 5th grade Girl Scouts had such fun making their snowmen!! Joni was great with the girls, she explained every step and helped the girls if they were having a hard time. Joni is very encouraging, patient and helped boost confidence!!
