Mini POP-UP Kit Grow Kindness
Being a kid has never been so stressful. With increased bullying, loneliness, and social pressures, we have to deliberately teach and model kindness in our families and communities. We hope our Pop-Up Mini-Box this month raises awareness for teaching kindness to you and the children in your circle.
Research from Emory University finds that when you are kind to another person your brain’s reward and pleasure centers light up as if you were the recipient of the good deed, rather than the giver?
Kitchen Table Question:
“How does it make you feel to do something nice for someone?”
