Older kids share playground with toddler.

a toddler with medium dark skin tone sitting on a sloped ramp attached to a set of play equipment in a playground grinning broadly. An adult with medium dark skin tone and short afro hair waits at the bottom, hands out.

“Lots of kindness from school age kids at the playground today:

Waiting extra time and slowing down so my toddler could have a turn too.

Being patient if she took a long time.

Getting off equipment so she could have a go.

As we were leaving, my toddler was fascinated by an older kid practising goalkeeping with an adult and stood watching. The kid came up close and kicked the ball to her really gently so she could have a turn of kicking it back.

And more!”

Big thank you to Matilda for sharing this with us! Share your story of kindness with us just like she did. Or remind yourself that you don’t need to be a toddler to experience kindness:

Kindness pays in cheese!

Fractured toe brings out kindness everywhere!
