Easy Printable Kindness Bookmarks to Color with Character Building Quotes
$4.97Note: Price is in US$
A simple DIY kindness activity with an exciting secret mission students love!
These printable kindness bookmarks are a creative and meaningful way to support your students’ social-emotional learning in a fun, low-prep way. While they’re busy coloring, they’re also soaking up powerful, character-building messages that help shape their behavior, friendships, and mindset.
But the best part—if you choose to participate—is the secret kindness mission they embark on after. It turns your students into undercover agents, spreading kindness around the school without anyone knowing who did it!
After writing a positive message on the back of their bookmark, the energy in the room completely shifts. Students are buzzing with anticipation, giggling and whispering as they prepare to quietly tuck their bookmarks into library books for someone else to find. It’s playful, a little sneaky (in the best way), and absolutely unforgettable.
Teachers say their students beg to do it again. It’s one of those simple moments that makes a big impact—on both the giver and the lucky person who finds the surprise.
