100 Acts of Kindess With Toddler Approved

Toddler Approved is hosting a wonderful project called the 100 Acts of Kindness Project. I love the idea of JDaniel and I doing things for others between Jan. 15th and Valentine's Day.Each week she puts up a challenge for you to complete as some of your 100 Acts of Kindness.

I decided to try to do the challenges she purposed along with working on acts of kindness I would like JDaniel to master like not having a tantrum when I say it is "Quiet Time" in the afternoon and cleaning his room without fussing. Yes, I am straying from the project, but boy has JDaniel toned down his fussing.

Recording Acts of Kindness

The first thing we were asked to do was come up with a way to record your acts of kindness. I decided we would do three things to keep track of our kindess.

1. Create a record sheet to write down what we did. I decided that we needed to show kindness to family, our community, and our world.
2. Mark off a number box on a hundreds grid each time we did an act of kindness.
3. Savor the act of kindess by eating a jelly bean from a bottle labeled with the people group we helped.

This Week's Challenge

 Make 5 "Thank You" cards and give them to people you've never thought to thank before.


What did we do? 

JDaniel and I made thank you cards for his Sunday school teachers. We haven't thanked them for all the work they do each Sunday with him.

We used  watered down red paint, a ball and a salad spinner to create this pretty cards.

On Monday Toddler Approved will be posting the next challenge for the week. I will be posting how we met that challenge next Saturday. I hope you will join me in the challenge!
