Kindness in Words

by Laura Gurley on October 11, 2011

The following is a character education lesson on kindness. It can be used with your children or with your students. You can watch this two minute video of my demonstration of the lesson, and then grab some blocks and do it yourself for the students, or you can just show them the video itself. Either way, it would be good to have discussions afterwards of how our words (even the casual ones we don’t think much about) can build up or tear down in significant ways for those around us.

This is great … and so true. Thanks for sharing … I’m going to pass it on to my children this week. (and your post today at A Deeper Story was powerful!)
