Product Description: When you create opportunities for kids to practice such things as kindness, empathy, respect, and conflict resolution, youll be amazed at the results. The Kindness Curriculum is designed to provide such opportunities. It is the outgrowth of the authors ten years teaching in the Early Childhood Education Program of St. Paul, Minnesota, and is in contrast to most other preschool curricula, which emphasize the cognitive domain. The activities in this book help build character. They teach the loving values and skills that children need in order to develop into happy, productive, and caring individuals. The first four chapters deal with the fundamental values of Love, Empathy, Gentleness, and Respect. In the fifth chapter, children learn about the powerful technique of Visualization followed by chapters on Self Control, Friendship, and Conflict Resolution. There is also a chapter of take-home exercises to encourage parental participation. The activities are fun and easy while creating an atmosphere of acceptance, and love in which children can seek out the goodness in themselves and each other. 122 pages.
