Acts of Kindness Freebie | Social Emotional Learning Activity

Acts of Kindness Freebie for Little Learners

Help students explore kindness in meaningful, age-appropriate ways with this Acts of Kindness freebie, designed for Pre-K, Kindergarten, and early First Grade classrooms. This resource encourages students to think about who, what, when, and where acts of kindness can happen through discussion, visuals, and simple planning pages.

Students use picture cards and response pages to identify real-life ways they can show kindness at school, at home, and in their community. This free resource works well as a social-emotional lesson, morning meeting activity, or extension during Valentine’s Day and friendship units.
