Hello lovely,
I really hope you are keeping safe, well, and happy as we continue through these challenging times and head into the festive season.
What a year this has been! It has been difficult for so many of us, in so many different ways. Amidst all the challenges, one positive thing that has really stood out for me this year, is hearing about all the incredible kindness acts taking place across our communities, our countries, and all over the world. There have been so many uplifting stories, and often it’s the smallest acts of kindnesses that make the biggest impact.
This may not be the festive season we all hoped for, but I hope it’ll be the best it can be under the current circumstances. I’d like to gently invite us all to make kindness a big part of that – showing kindness to those around us and to those in our communities, and remembering to be kinder to ourselves too!
This month’s kindness act suggestions continue to be lockdown-friendly. They aren’t intended to put your lovely self, or others at unnecessary risk. If you come across any which you feel this is the case, then please do skip it, or substitute with your own kindness act.
If this is your first Kindness Advent Calendar, I’d like to wish you a very warm welcome and thank you for joining us. This works just like a normal advent calendar, but instead of the usual chocolate countdown (which, of course, we can still enjoy alongside this one 😊), we are embracing the true spirit of Christmas by doing 24 random acts of festive kindness.
Every single act of kindness counts, and I’ve made the kindness act suggestions quick, easy and mostly free, so anyone and everyone can join in. Let’s get as many people as we can involved and share this with family, friends, neighbours, work colleagues, classmates… and share over social media.
So, without further ado, I’d like to invite lovely you and yours to join me in spreading a little kindness this month.

Kindness Advent Calendar for KIDS 2020
v
I receive so much positive feedback from parents and teachers about my Kindness Advent Calendar for Kids, I thought I’d create another one this year.
It’s such a fun and easy way for teachers and parents to get children involved in spreading a little kindness in the lead up to Christmas, and a lovely way of showing children what a positive impact they can have on the world.
So here it is…

Non-Advent Calendars
Over the years, I’ve been asked to create a generic, non-advent Kindness Calendar for December, and include this year’s here:
