This time on The Children’s Hour, we explore kindness with our Kids Crew and Lindsay Munroe. Lindsay is a singer-songwriter, and mom. She explores the themes of positivity, inclusion, and kindness in her work. Her music is written with the goal of helping children with autism but is useful for all children and their families.

This episode comes with a free Learning Guide that meets and cites US National Education Standards.

Imagine a world where kindness is a habit. The Kids Crew explore kindness, as a practice, science and feeling on this edition of The Children’s Hour. 

On the show we hear lots of Lindsay Munroe’s music which encourages kids to build caring communities by being courageously friendly. We learn about who inspires her, about how she writes her music and how acts of kindness are beneficial for our health. What kind action can you take today?

Acts of kindness are more than just beneficial for the recipient, givers are also rewarded. We discover the science of kindness, and how it’s a gift that keeps on giving.

Come along with us as we cultivate kindness.

 

This episode is mixed with great music sure to inspire you to dance, sing along, and practice kindness with those in your life.

 

Today’s Children’s Hour was written and produced by our Executive Producer, Katie Stone, with help from Senior Producer Christina Stella. Our learning guides are written by Lorraine Archibald.
