Our growing collection of projects, printables, book lists, and research-based wisdom will help your busy family grow big hearts. Kindness is a muscle: the more you practice, the stronger your child’s compassion grows.


A guide for positive parenting, for anyone who is going to be around children. I can’t begin to imagine what a wonderful world it would be if everyone practiced this kind of kindness with kids.
