Random Acts of Kindness, Spring Break Style

I loooove random acts of kindness!  Katie and I had a great time doing them for my 32nd birthday.
Nothing makes it more fun than when the kids join in!  We decided over spring break we wanted to try to get at least one random act of kindness in everyday.  We weren't able to do all we wanted but it was still super fun and a good reminder that we need to try harder to incorporate this into our lives on a more regular basis.

We taped a bag of microwave popcorn up at the RedBox in town.

We took some coffee to the fire dept.


Gave a bag of candy to some city workers who were repairing the street.  I love that Kelton had no reservations to hop out of the van and give it to them.

Dropped off pudding cups for some little friends who had their tonsils out and needed soft yummy foods.

Coloring books and crayons to leave in the Dr's office.

We took donuts to our Veterinarian's office.  They were so kind when we had to put Jasmine down, so it was something we should have done long ago.

I made a goodie bag of allergy friendly treats for a boy from church who has developed a severe nut allergy.  My kids don't know eating any differently than they do, but I can't imagine being 16 and having to completely alter your lifestyle.

Even though the week ended before we got in all our random acts of kindness, the kids had lots of fun thinking up different ideas.  This will be a great activity to extend into summer!

You can find great little printable cards HERE and HERE for random acts of kindness.  I always have some of these in my purse for the when opportunity arises!
