Everyday Kindness

Cultivating empathy at home, in the community, and in the classroom.

Everyday Kindness^Ⓡ is a hub of social emotional learning, curated activities to spark creativity & empathy at home, in your classroom, and in your community.

Coming together as a community, as a country and as a global collective during the pandemic required empathy, understanding and a sense that we are all in this together. Everyday Kindness^Ⓡ cultivates just that, developing social-emotional learning skills, and helping kids feel positive about themselves and others, decreasing emotional distress, and helping them to build supportive relationships and make good choices.

With the help of In a Perfect World’s Everyday Kindness lessons, I’m able to provide my students with activities that are fun, bright, and joyful, but also teach empathy.
