MARCH KINDNESS DAY

Thursday, March 15th, 2018

THEME: Build an Attitude of Gratitude

A thankful heart keeps us thinking positive, looking for the good in others, and wards off feelings of fear and injustice. Focusing on the things we are grateful for, both extrinsic and intrinsic, will help children realize how LUCKY (blessed) they are. It may also motivate them to look for ways to help others who are in need of their kindness.

How does gratitude influence our personal lives?

Gratitude is proven to make people happier, less anxious, and more energized. Maybe because grateful people are more forgiving, confident, and charitable.
