2. Kindness Coloring Pages

A favorite for a reason! Popular kindness-themed coloring pages have been used by thousands of teachers to support calm, meaningful moments in their classrooms and now you can grab a few for free.

They’re perfect for early finishers, quiet time, or as a thoughtful activity during kindness week. Each page includes a simple, uplifting message that gets kids thinking about how to treat others with care and respect.

No prep, no fuss. Just print and let your students relax and reflect while they color.

And in case you’re wondering why these coloring pages are such a hit, it’s not just because they’re fun. Teachers and parents love them because while kids color, they’re also reading short, positive messages that act like mini affirmations. It’s a quiet way to build strong character and reinforce kind behavior without a formal lesson.

But that’s just the beginning.

Coloring offers a whole bunch of other benefits for kids and adults. So why not get some for yourself too? It’s a great way to slow down, connect, and enjoy a mindful moment together.

Why Coloring is Such a Healthy (and underrated) Activity

3. Kindness Checklist

There’s something so motivating about checking off a list, and these kindness checklists are a favorite with kids and teachers alike. Students have even proudly emailed photos of their completed sheets.

What makes this checklist extra special is that it encourages kids to spread kindness in four different areas of their lives:

• At school
• At home
• In the community
• With an adult

This helps them think beyond their immediate circle and consider how their actions can make a difference in lots of settings.

Teachers particularly love the editable version because it gives students the chance to personalize their acts of kindness. You can use it during group work to brainstorm ideas together or as a class project where each student adds their own kindness goals. It’s a simple way to turn kindness into something intentional, collaborative, and meaningful.

We had some teachers ask us about custom checklists so we created one that teachers can edit themselves which includes an option for students to work in teams. 

4. Kindness Is... Poster

Looking for simple kindness ideas your students can actually do? This free poster is filled with everyday actions that kids can easily choose from. Perfect for Random Acts of Kindness Day or anytime you want to spark a little good in your classroom.

The ideas are easy, age-appropriate, and written in a way that helps kids understand what kindness looks like in real life.
