Acts of Kindness for Fall

This post is part of the Mega Cash Giveaway and Fall Linkup from Kid Blogger Network- see details below!

Teaching my children values like showing kindness to others is central to how I am trying to raise my sons.  I draw inspiration from other bloggers who have found many creative ideas to do acts of kindness with their kids, many of which are showcased in our Random Acts of Kindness series.  Now I’m excited to be sharing some wonderful ideas for acts of kindness especially for the fall season!
