As my kids get older and older, I really try to remind them to think of others and to be thankful for all that we have. It's so easy to get caught up in wanting all of the latest gadgets or hottest new toys. I'm guilty too. We all probably are. But, the good news is, we can all do something about it.

This November, our family is striving to complete 30 acts of giving and/or kindness. I want my kids to think of others. I want them to WANT to give back and look for ways to spread love and kindness even on the most ordinary day. I want them to think of their friends, hold doors for strangers and seek the feeling of giving back.

Below is our "action" list for November. We all sat down together after school yesterday and decided on what we could do for others. It was so amazing to hear their ideas and I know they will enjoy this project so much. Feel free to print a list and join in on the fun! (Just right click on the list below and save to your desktop.) Kindness is contagious and the more we spread, the more we receive! Hope you will play along!
