The Power of Kindness

In celebration of World Kindness Day on November 13, this week’s video highlights the amazing impact that kindness can have on others and ourselves. Sami reminds us that when we take the time to offer a kind word or do something thoughtful, it can completely change someone’s perspective.

Kindness doesn’t just help others; it makes us feel good, too. Sami talks about how simple acts, like leaving a positive comment or offering encouragement, can make a big difference. It’s a reminder that we all have the power to create a ripple effect of positivity, starting with small gestures.

At home, you can build on this message by talking with your child about what kindness looks like in everyday life. Maybe it’s as simple as holding the door for someone, saying “great job” to a friend, or helping a sibling with homework. Sami also challenges kids to complete five acts of kindness this week, which is a great way to practice being thoughtful and intentional.

When you talk with your child about the video, ask how showing kindness makes them feel. It’s a wonderful way to help them recognize that kindness isn’t just about making others feel good—it’s about building strong relationships and creating a community where everyone feels supported.

As Sami always says, “Kindness always wins.” It’s a powerful mantra to live by and a gift we can share with the world every single day. So, what’s one act of kindness your family can focus on this week? Let’s make it happen!
