Wouldn’t it be great to have an organized, simple approach for teaching kids how to care for others? This booklet provides hundreds of ideas, approaches, and practices, all organized by the virtues of caring: compassion, empathy, helpfulness, integrity, justice, and more. You’ll find engaging activity ideas, like alphabets of courtesy and gratitude trees, along with conversation starters, suggested Scripture passages, saint stories, and book recommendations. The brief but insightful reflections help adults deepen their understanding of these virtues, and the short prayers are perfect for saying together. Best of all, the ideas can be used in many settings: at home, in classrooms, or in small or large groups. Whether you use a few of these approaches or weave them into a full program, this essential booklet can help you encourage and nurture virtues in children and help them grow into the compassionate and caring people God created them to be.
