NKP: Kindness Stones

Noah's Kindness Project: Kindness Stones

Not only was this one of the kindness activities shared with me, but it was also one that the kids and I had seen on  Pinterest and thought would be fun to participate in this year. 
Kindness Rocks with Kids
We are excited to talk  about the Kindness Stones as a part of the Noah's Kindness Project 
In the afternoon of October 7th we will gather at our home and spend some time painting stones with kind messages, inspirational sayings or even hand drawn pictures.  At the end of the day we will split up the painted stones and each take a few to share within our own communities.

KINDNESS ROCKS  - find some flat stones  - clean and decorate with paint, glitter, stickers etc.  - a coat of clear varnish helps protect. www.ripplekindness.org

The fun in this project is that each person picks a place to release their kindness stones... maybe a local park, maybe by a bus stop, along a hiking trail or even by a tree near your home.  Where ever you find the perfect spot to be, you leave your stone in a place where other person will find it to enjoy.  Maybe they will smile at seeing it and leave it for others to enjoy too, or they will pick it up and take it with them to have a visual reminder of the message shared on the rock.  

Sometimes we can all use a sign or reminder that things are going to be okay, that the stress will fade away, and that love and kindness is still bountiful.  I think these stones of kindness, are just the sign others will enjoy.

A bit art, a bit of creativity, a bundle of fun and a lot of kindness... all  in the simple gesture of painting a few stones.
