Toolkit #3: The Mighty Kind Movement 

Teaching kids to count is fine, but teaching them what counts is best.” - Bob Talbert

Imagine how much better life would be if we all chose to be kinder... to ourselves, each other and the world we live in with just 5 steps. That’s the vision behind The Mighty Kind Movement. Brought to life by the Orgamites, it’s a growing movement of teachers, students and families who believe that enough small acts of kindness can make the biggest difference. In fact, they can change the world!

Unlike the previous two toolkits, this toolkit is designed for students aged 8-14. Updated October 2023.
