Inside: Use these Winter Kindness Notes to spread kindness to neighbors and friends this winter. It’s a perfect way to connect during the winter weather and make sure neighbors have what they need. 


Last winter was a brutal one for us.

The weather wasn’t so terrible, although it was our first real winter with snowstorms and feet and feet of snow.

I think it was extra isolating because we were all living through a pandemic, staying socially distant, and not getting together for parties or playdates.

Many, many people spent the winter months stuck inside because outside was too cold and indoors anywhere but home felt unsafe.

So we had to go out of our way to connect with others and help our neighbors who needed the extra help. 

When my husband pulled out our snowblower and finished our driveway and sidewalk, he kept on going around the whole culdesac to clear it for others. (And then later after more snow hit, our friends did the same).

We checked in with neighbors when we headed to the store to see if they needed us to grab them milk or eggs or toilet paper.

And we made sure they knew we were thinking of them, missed them and still wanted to connect with them…even if we couldn’t be there in person.

One simple way we can do that again this winter is with our Winter Kindness Notes that are perfect for kids to pass out to neighbors and friends to spread a little kindness, a little connection, and a little help. 

Winter Kindness Notes are perfect for kids to leave for neighbors and friends. It's a great way to spread kindness during the winter months.

Ways to Spread Kindness During Winter

If we want to raise kind kids, we have to give them specific and tangible ways they can speak and act with kindness more often.

Because being kind takes practice before it can become a habit for our kids. 

Winter is a great time to help our kids spread kindness to those around them. They can use these winter drawing prompts and gift their drawings to elderly neighbors who could use a bit of cheer.

We can teach kids what’s kind and what’s not kind with these Winter Kind or Unkind Sorts: Mittens Kind or Unkind, Snowmen Kind or Unkind, and Hot Cocoa Kind or Unkind Sorts.

Or you can get this Winter Social Emotional Learning Bundle:

You can read a Winter Kindness Book like this one: The Magic of Friendship Snow
