The Kindness Ninjas Strike Again!

It had been a while since the kindness ninjas had done a collective Random Act of Kindness! 

An idea came to me as I was trying to simplify 27 years of stuff accumulated in my classroom closet. I had way more books than I ever could use so I put them out in the hallway for the other teachers. But after they went through it, I still had hundreds of books left! So I hatched a plan with my Kindness Ninjas and they LOVED the idea! 

We set up an area called Kindness Ninja Central. They wrote kind words on bookmarks, decorated them and tied a ribbon to each one. 











Then they picked a book, put their bookmark in it and put it in the “finished” box. 

When we had enough books for a class, we wrapped them in ribbon with a note and added a kindness ninja for their class. We put on our Kindness Ninja headbands and snuck to a classes door.  Then we slid the books into their room and tip toe ran back to our room! Then they would do it again!

When we racked a couple classes, we came in and saw that our kindness Ninjas was filled with so much kindness that he grew! Then after a couple more another kindness ninja joined us! They were so excited!! They left a note that if we made enough bookmarks and gave books to 6 more classes, another kindness ninja family member would join us!



One little friend wanted to know how they write us notes with no hands! 



We met our goal and a baby kindness ninja joined us! But he was sad he didn’t get to do a R.A.K. (Random Act of Kindness) with us and asked if we could do one more class! We did, and that finished off all the kindergarten classes!



Of course they were more than happy too! These special friends made 192 bookmarks and gave 13 kindergarten classes 192 books in one week!



We got caught in the hallways enough times that everyone figured out that we were the kindness ninjas! We received all kinds of thank you cards and writing from other classes thanking us for their books and bookmarks.  Kids came up to us all the time telling us what their bookmark said and what book they picked. The kids were so happy knowing they made so many kids in our school feel special and happy! This was a great Random Act of Kindness to end the year on and will be a special memory for them all!
