One Cool Kindness Kit
Make this Thanksgiving season (and beyond!) the coolest one yet by celebrating positivity, kindness, and, of course, gratitude . . . with some ideas inspired by the gang from One Cool Duck.
One Cool Duck is an early reader graphic novel series by Mike Petrik.
Beaded Bracelets for Your Buddies
Set a message of positivity this Thanksgiving. Kids can pass on the good vibes by stringing beaded bracelets with fun slogans and sharing them with their friends. Better yet, make it a bracelet beading party so that kids can make ’em and trade ’em. Our coolest examples:
- POW
- SICK TRICK
- COOL CAT
- SWEET
- FIRE
- DOPE
- YO DOG
- FAR OUT
- GG/GOOD GAME
- Or, make up your own words or phrases!
Commit to a Cool Cause
It’s cool to help others! Here are some fun ways kids can help give back to their community this holiday season:
- create birthday/holiday boxes for kids in shelters
- read to rescue animals
- host a lemonade stand to raise money for a favorite cause
- participate in USPS Operation Santa
- sponsor a child through Toys for Tots, Angel Tree (Salvation Army), or Angel Tree (Prison Fellowship)
One Cool Scavenger Hunt
We don’t have to look very far to find a cornucopia of things to be thankful for! Encourage kids to cultivate a regular attitude of gratitude with this cool scavenger hunt.
Kind is Cool Bingo
Celebrate small but mighty acts of kindness with a bangin’ game of bingo. Kids can brainstorm their own kindness ideas to add to this Kind is Cool bingo card.
