Why teach kindness to kids?

The practice of teaching children about essential social skills such as kindness, responsibility, respect for self and others, and emotional regulation is known as social-emotional learning.

Research supports a wealth of benefits for children who engage consistently in social-emotional learning, including:

  • Improved social skills and relationships
  • Increased positive attitude towards self and others
  • Better academic achievement
  • Fewer conduct problems

Additionally, studies suggest that people who adopt random acts of kindness into their daily lives feel less stressed and even live longer!

“SEL [Social-Emotional Learning] can help all young people and adults thrive personally and academically, develop and maintain positive relationships, become lifelong learners, and contribute to a more caring, just world.

"If you want your child to choose kindness in their moments of anger, show them kindness in your moments of anger."

-Quote and graphic by Tana, suchalittlewhile.com

                When it comes to a positive approach to discipline, kindness looks like this:

                Many adults today did not grow up with a positive, authoritative approach to discipline. It takes time, practice, and courage to unlearn the patterns you may have experienced growing up and adopt new methods.
