Developing Character through Kindness Practices
Creating an environment that encourages Kindness and sharing it throughout the larger community is important to instill our youth. Teaching empathy, positivity, and strenghtening self-esteem can help support learning and developig efforts. Find ideas to create a Kindness mentality in your program.
Each month we publish a monthly calendar to encourage students, your staff and the
families at your YMCA to stay healthy and active. You can even print a certificate and
we encourage you to send print outs home with your students! Click the image to the left
to access all of the calendars.
Social Emotional Learning Resources in Your ProgramAs educators and youth development leaders, some of the most important things we can teach to the kids we work with are learning how to manage emotions and interact with others. Social emotional learning (SEL) addresses children’s ability to learn about and manage their emotions and interactions with others – the skills all kids need to succeed in school, form healthy relationships, and eventually excel in the workplace.
