What is a kindness chart?
A kindness chart suggests ways for your child to express kindness.
You can hang it up or stick it on the fridge, it can help start a conversation about kindness and considerate behaviour with your little one.
It can also help your child track their acts of kindness over the course of a few days or weeks, which is a great way to boost self-esteem.
A kindness chart is a great way to encourage kind behaviour and thoughtfulness, so your child can:
develop empathy and active listening
acknowledge other people's feelings
learn to help friends and family.
