If you’re a homeschooling parent looking to encourage both writing skills and character development, this Kindness Writing Project Freebie is a perfect fit for your family.
Originally created for my fifth-grade classroom, I’ve reimagined this Kindness activity just for homeschoolers. It invites your children to perform meaningful Acts of Kindness or Service and reflect on them as they write about them. Whether you’re teaching young children or middle school age, this flexible resource works beautifully across a range of ages and schedules.
Here's How the Kindness Writing Activity Works!
Start by reading a kindness-themed or service to others book together (like Have You Filled a Bucket Today? or Kindness Is My Superpower) and brainstorming real-life ways your child can serve others—from helping a neighbor to writing a letter to a grandparent. Then, guide your child through writing about the experience with graphic organizers, first draft writing paper, and adorable final project stationary.
Whether you use this as a week-long mini-unit or stretch it over an entire year, this kindness freebie will help develop empathy, build writing confidence, and create sweet family memories.
🌺Grab this Free Kindness Activity now and help your homeschoolers grow kind hearts and strong writing skills.
