SHOW AND TELL
We asked you to draw your favourite way to be kind, as part of a competition we ran with our patron, Emily Coxhead and The Happy Newspaper. We had SO many amazing responses. Emily picked 10 designs, which are now available to buy, with proceeds going to 52 Lives.
Amazing work!
Book of the Month
The Empty Stocking by Richard Curtis
This story is great for all ages. It tells the story of twin sisters at Christmas time. One is good, and the other…well she is less good! See what happens on Christmas Eve when Santa arrives! This is a fun story of kindness, empathy and love and illustrated by the very talented Rebecca Cobb.
Extra Activities
This Kind Christmas Activity Pack is filled to the brim with fun activities to bring joy!
SHARE YOUR STORIES
We’d love to see what kind things you’ve been up to! If you’d like to share a photo of something kind you have done (for yourself or for someone else) ask a parent or guardian to send it to us.
Self-Kindness tip of the month:
At Christmas time, it is easy to end up eating lots of delicious sugary treats – but to be extra kind to your body, make sure that you are getting your five fruit or vegetables every day as well!
