environment
Help preschoolers develop compassion for others with this collection of
classroom and at-home activities. These simple but powerful lessons help
children practice loving values as they contribute to a supportive
learning environment--a place where all children seek out the goodness
in themselves and others.
The Kindness Curriculum, Second Edition, provides a variety of new and
revised experiences that strengthen the building blocks of positive
character development. Children will enjoy the expression the activities
encourage and the playfulness they provide as they learn about love,
feelings and empathy, gentleness, self-control, respect, friendship, and
conflict resolution. This edition includes activities that aim to
prevent bullying before it starts by teaching young children about
pro-social values in a peaceful classroom community.
This comprehensive collection of activities helps foster an atmosphere
of acceptance, empowerment, and love. It also supports the important
lesson that a little kindness can go a long way.
