Teaching Kindness to Kids

Teaching kindness to children is one of the most valuable lessons we can impart to them. It goes beyond simple manners or politeness; kindness is about showing empathy, compassion, and understanding towards others.

By instilling these values in our children from a young age, we are equipping them with the tools they need to navigate the world with grace and the hard work of kindness. After all, kindness is also a biblical value. My kids know that I sometimes get overzealous in quotes Galatians 6 to them. The fruit of the spirit is…kindness (among other things).

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

Galatians 5:22-23 ESV

In today’s fast-paced and often self-centered society, it is more important than ever to teach children the importance of kindness. With the rise of technology and social media, children are constantly bombarded with messages that can sometimes promote negative behaviors or values.

By actively teaching kindness, we can counteract these influences and help children develop strong character and a sense of empathy towards others.

A small way to reinforce the concept of kindness is through art, like coloring pages!

Kindness coloring pages can be easily integrated into various settings, such as the classroom or home. Our family homeschools, so we use these as a free art option.

Teachers can incorporate them into their lesson plans on character education or social-emotional learning, while parents can use them as a tool to promote positive behavior and kindness at home. These coloring pages can be downloaded for free, making them accessible to all and allowing for personal use as needed.

So let’s embrace this fun and educational activity and use kindness coloring pages as a stepping stone towards raising kind and compassionate individuals.

Using Kindness Coloring Pages

It is up to you how complicated or simple you want to make it using these pages. They can be a part of a larger lesson, or as simple as a free art choice! Here are a few ideas if you intend to use them in a more in-depth lesson.

1. Set the stage
   • Before starting the coloring activity, take a moment to explain the purpose and importance of kindness. Discuss what it means to be kind and why it is important to show empathy and compassion towards others. Emphasize the importance of treating others with kindness and respect.
2. Use age-appropriate pages
   • Choose coloring pages that are suitable for the age and development level of the children you are working with. For younger children, use the fun kindness coloring pages made for kids. For older kids, who might be in middle school or high school, use the more intricate pages made for adults. There are free coloring options for both age groups.
3. Encourage creativity
   • Encourage creativity and self-expression: While coloring the pages, encourage children to use their creativity and express themselves. Let them choose their own colors and encourage them to add their own personal touch to the pages. This helps foster a sense of ownership and engagement in the activity.
4. Discuss the messages
   • As children color, engage them in conversations about the messages and quotes on the coloring pages. A wonderful way to engage them is to ask open-ended questions such as, “What does kindness mean to you?” or “How do you think your actions can impact others?” Encourage children to reflect on the meaning behind the words and images, fostering a deeper understanding of kindness.
5. Display the finished creations
   • I love seeing my children’s creations, and I know that they do too! Display your kindness by coloring around your classroom or home!
6. Reinforce kindness in daily life
   • The coloring activity shouldn’t be limited to just the coloring pages. Encourage children to practice kindness in their daily lives by performing acts of kindness for others. Discuss and brainstorm ideas for kind gestures they can do at home, in school, or in their community. By extending the lesson beyond the coloring pages, children can see firsthand the positive impact of their actions. Doing random acts of kindness is a great way to reinforce it in daily life. The website Not Consumed has a great resource for doing random acts of kindness and my friend LeeAnn at Bible Study Printables has a great calendar for kindness in December.

If you are a teacher and are always looking for bulletin board ideas, these kindness coloring pages would make a great display! Especially during February! A little kindness and love go a long way!

Beyond Coloring Pages

As much as we love the therapeutic and creative benefits of coloring sheets, the lessons of kindness should not end with the completion of a coloring page. The beauty of using kindness coloring pages as a teaching tool is that it provides a springboard for further discussions and actions that can reinforce the values of Galatians 5 in our homes and classrooms.

Kindness is more than just good behavior or a kind word. To extend the lesson beyond coloring pages, encourage children to practice kindness in their daily lives. This can be done by performing acts of kindness for others. I have a blog post on 8 of the top kindness activities for kids that you may find helpful.

Encourage them to brainstorm and come up with ideas for kind gestures they can do at home, in school, or in their community. By engaging in real acts of kindness, children can see firsthand the positive impact they can have on others and experience the joy of spreading kindness.

Another way to extend the lesson is to incorporate kindness into everyday conversations. When you encounter situations where kindness can be demonstrated, use them as teaching moments. Discuss how acts of kindness can make a difference and emphasize the importance of empathy and compassion in various situations. By consistently highlighting and reinforcing these values in daily life, children will start to internalize and incorporate kindness into their own actions.

Kindness is a powerful force! After all, kindness matters. All it takes is simple acts of kindness to change someone’s day. Encourage children to practice kindness in their daily lives, engage in conversations about empathy and compassion, read books that emphasize these values, participate in community service, and celebrate acts of kindness.

By incorporating these activities, you are nurturing a culture of kindness and Biblical concepts that will have a lasting impact on your children and the world around them.
