Daisy Social Considerate and Caring Petal Badge Activity for Kids
Create a Bag of Kindness
Practice emotional skills and social competence by making a bag of positive notes for your family.
Activity Details
Time needed: 20 minutes
Materials needed:
- Pencils
- Paper
- Paper bag or clear zippered storage bag
- Coloring supplies
- Stickers (optional)
Setup:
Practicing social competence and emotional skills includes thinking about how your words and actions make others feel. In this activity, you will practice social skills by being considerate and caring toward the people you know.
Start at home with your family. Think about things you could say to make their day a little brighter and turn them into notes or pictures. You could make notes or pictures for different people in your family or just one person. Make sure you think about how your words might make others feel. That’s being considerate and caring!
Activity:
- Think of at least three kind messages you would like to share with your family.
- Write them in short notes or draw pictures that show those messages. You could write, “I love your smile.” Or draw a picture of you together with a heart to say, “I love you.”
- Decorate a paper bag or a clear zippered storage bag however you’d like. Use your coloring supplies, stickers, or any other art materials you might have.
- Put your notes in the bag.
- Share it with your family! Let them know they can open a note whenever they’re feeling down or need a reason to smile.
