Game
Secret friend
- ages 3–15
- 30 min
Each child draws a secret friend and does something nice for them throughout the day.
Steps
- Children draw a classmate's name without revealing it.
- Throughout the day, they do little kind things for them: helping, complimenting, drawing a picture.
- At the end of the day, children guess who their secret friend was.
- Conversation: how did we feel when someone was kind to us?
- You write down ideas for acts of kindness on a poster.
Tip: Help younger children: each draws a picture for their secret friend, which the teacher hands out.
