11/28/11- The free healthy word of the day: Kindness - the quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate. - submitted by "Healthy Word" Advocate Fondé P. Bridges



11/28/11 
The free healthy word of the day Kindness - the quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate.

Discuss the word "Kindness" with your child.   My youngest son often asks me to be kind to him when I'm punishing him.  I oblige him every time.  My students frequently write the word “kindness” on their leaves in the “Healthy Words” workshop. I have seen over 100 leaves with the word "kindness". Wow!  It's almost like they are voting for more "kindness".  This morning I applaud all of you who choose to be kind.  Be kind with your child today and share the meaning of the word "kindness" with them.  Enjoy your kindness and share it with everyone you can. 

“Kindness” Conversation Starters

1. What are some of the benefits of being kind?
2. Who is kind to you?  Do they know you appreciate their kindness?
3. Do you enjoy being kind?  Why or why not?
4. Do you think kind people enjoy their life more?
