Toddler Approved!: Kindness at Home {Glittering Muffins}

Last week we kicked off the?100 Acts of Kindness Project?with our first challenge by?Megan of Coffee Cups & Crayons. This week we received our second kindness challenge (issued by?Kim from The Educators' Spin On It)!

Today Valerie from Glittering Muffins?is sharing about how her family shows kindness within their home.?

As we perform acts of kindness, one of the most important things we can remember is to focus on our own little sphere of influence (spouse, kids, parents, siblings) in addition to other people around us. Often it is easier to be kinder to the postman than it is to be kind to our child who just smeared tooth paste all over the bathroom mirror for the fourth time!

How's the kindness challenge going at your house this week?

My favorite moments this week have occurred as I have watched my two older kids play nicely together again and again. They run in circles around the living room, build forts, have dance parties, and play trains. I have been loving the simple ways that they have been showing kindness to one another- sharing toys, saying sorry, helping each other pick things up, cheering for one another, asking for things in polite ways, and saying thank you (to name a few)! Today they were also kind and helped with scrub the dishes!

What are simple ways that your kids show kindness to one another at home? Come share in the comments!
