Today’s Activities
Engage
Save this piece of paper for after you watch the video below.
Second, watch this video on gratitude from Steve Hartman (and his kids). Kindness 101 with Steve Hartman: Gratitude.
Third, after you watch the video, try making a list of at least ten things for which you are grateful. Make the list as long as you can! Better yet, if there are any people on your list, find them and thank them for the difference they have made in your life. You can express your gratitude in person, through email, a phone call, or even through writing a letter or drawing them a picture. I’m sure that they will be grateful for you expressing your gratitude.
