The Kindness Elves: Encouraging Kindness through PLAY!
Teaching kindness to kids requires daily practice, role play, and many opportunities for adults to model (model, model) acts of kindness. We are honored to introduce the Kindness Elves to YOU. Through daily play and interactions with these adorable little elves, kids will have many opportunities to practice small kindnesses at home or in the classroom.

The Story of The Kindness Elves
“In the clouds not too far above your home, live the teeny tiny Kindness Elves who spend their days making special kindness potions. One day they discover they need the help of some very special children on a very important kindness mission!”
The Story of the Kindness Elves introduces children to the joy that showing daily acts of kindness can bring, in whimsical and magical ways. The book is a wonderful introduction to using the Kindness Elves to help teach and guide our kids to daily acts of kindness through pretend play and practical applications. We will be using the book next month to introduce the newest members of the Kindness Elves to our own students. We plan to use the Kindness Elves as a daily part of our preschool classroom throughout all of next year!
The Wish Makers and Nature Lovers
The Wish Makers (pink) and Nature Lovers (green) elves are the newest members of the Kindness Elves family. The Wish Makers are fabulously inventive and love nothing more than to create wonderful surprises for others to enjoy! The Nature Lovers love to be outside playing and exploring! The nature lovers are tree climbers, forest explorers, beach diggers, wave jumpers, leaf throwers, and puddle splashers. The elves have names, but children are free to name each of the elves on their own as they read the story, learn about kindness, and put kindness into daily action!
