Child: All people need kindness, Let there be more kind ones. It’s not for nothing that they say “Good afternoon” and “Good evening” when meeting. And it’s not for nothing that we have the “Good Hour” wish. Kindness is the adornment of a person from time to time... Child: It is not at all easy to be kind, Kindness does not depend on growth. Kindness does not depend on color, Kindness is not a gingerbread, not a candy. If kindness shines like the sun, adults and children rejoice. Child: I want everyone to laugh, so that dreams always come true, so that children have joyful dreams. So that the morning is good, So that mom doesn’t be sad, So that there is no more war in the world. Child: - Good afternoon! - they told you, - Good afternoon! - you answered. How two strings connected Warmth and kindness.

What is good?

What is kindness? Kindness is one of the most important concepts that needs to be explained to your baby as early as possible. Of course, the concept of kindness is abstract, and it is usually difficult for children to understand such things right away, but with patience, you will definitely be able to reach your child and talk about him.

Goodness is good, sincere and selfless actions. A kind person will always help others and will not leave them in trouble, but he will do it just like that and will not expect anything in return. Such a person commands respect, people also treat him kindly in return.

Kindness is the most valuable quality of a person. It manifests itself in care, understanding and acceptance of those around you. A kind person is always responsive and ready to provide all possible help and support to loved ones. Usually a kind person also has additional positive qualities: calmness, nobility, sensitivity, politeness, responsiveness, generosity.

“A kind person is a happy person.” This wisdom was known in ancient times.

But if a person is angry and has a bad attitude towards others, towards nature, then he can only evoke sympathy. As a rule, this is an unhappy, nervous and lonely person. But it’s very bad to be like this, isn’t it?

What difference does it make whether it’s warm or cold outside when a little rainbow lives in your heart all day long...

How to teach a child kindness?

You can cultivate a desire for kindness in a child and teach him to be kind only through your own experience. You, as a parent, are simply obliged to set a worthy example for your child, to show him your kind attitude not only towards him, but also towards the people around him. This will help form the correct model of behavior in the little person’s head, because it has been scientifically proven that children repeat what they see and imitate adults.

It is also important to let the child understand that real kindness is quiet and modest, that one does not need to shout loudly about one’s good deeds, much less demand any reward for a good deed.

Tell also that kindness can be feigned, that there are people who only pretend to be kind, but in fact do not experience any sincere feelings. Such imaginary “kindness” is not appreciated and does not help a person to be a respected strong person.

Use every moment to help your child, show your love for him and others. An excellent option would be to go to your sick grandmother, help your grandfather, feed birds, care for animals, or communicate with your sister or brother. Be sure to monitor what kind of relationships you have in your family, remember that the child remembers and repeats most of your actions.

Create a family tradition of doing at least one good deed every day. Just so... so that there is good... After all, what you sow is what you reap...

A good person is not one who knows how to do good, but one who does not know how to do evil. V. O. Klyuchevsky

Why is kindness needed at all?

Why do you need to be kind at all? This question is sure to come out of your baby's mouth. You must be prepared to answer this too. Explain to your child that kindness is needed not only for your immediate environment, but also for everyone else. Through kindness, our society can prosper and develop. When we hold on to each other and help, when there is no self-interest between us, then we are stronger, the work progresses better and faster, problems are solved, and the world becomes a better place.

Have you noticed that it is pleasant and interesting to communicate with a kind person, that he has many friends, and is always happy and smiling? But an evil person is unpleasant and uninteresting; you don’t want to be friends with him at all. Therefore, in order not to end up like this, you need to show more compassion and love to people, be caring, show them your good attitude, then people will be kind to you.

The world needs kindness so much that they even created a special holiday in honor of kindness, which is celebrated all over the world on November 13th.

Kindness is the sun that warms a person’s soul.

Everything good in nature comes from the sun, and everything best in life comes from man and his kindness.

Mikhail Prishvin

Parables about kindness

For centuries, people have written wonderful tales and given birth to parables about kindness. They perfectly demonstrate the essence of kindness. For example, this video, which has spread around the Internet many, many times, speaks very eloquently and subtly about this:

Here is another instructive story about the importance of the silence of good deeds...

One day, the students came to the mentor and asked him: “Why do bad inclinations easily take hold of a person, but good inclinations take hold of a person with difficulty and remain fragile in him?”
- What happens if a healthy seed is left in the sun and a sick one is buried in the ground? - asked the old man.
“A good seed that is left without soil will die, but a bad seed will germinate and produce a sick sprout and bad fruit,” answered the students.
“This is what people do: instead of secretly doing good deeds and growing good seedlings deep in their souls, they put them on display and thereby ruin them.
And people hide their shortcomings and sins deep in their souls so that others do not see them. There they grow and wound a person to the very heart.
You, be wise and don’t do this!
