☆ Make Kindness Your Superpower ☆
Kindness starts from the top down in families, schools, businesses, even countries! But no matter where we fall in the pecking order, we can make a difference by setting an example of treating others with kindness and respect—even when we don't agree.
As humans, we often learn through stories. We relate to the characters and apply their fictional circumstances to our own real-life situations. We especially love stories about heroes who overcome adversity and defeat tyrants.
Many of the most popular stories include combat or martial arts as a means of righting wrongs. Here are some of our favorites that fit that criteria:
- The Avengers & pretty much every superhero comic or movie
- Lord of the Rings
- Star Wars
- James Bond
- One Piece
- The Karate Kid franchise (especially Cobra Kai. Go, Miyagido!)
- Most of the Saturday morning cartoons so many of us grew up with
- Even teacher and archaeologist Indiana Jones fought his way out of scrapes
Our Better than Bullying programs flip the script, showing how kindness can be the most effective weapon in the war against disrespect and cruelty.
The Advent-ure Kindness Kalendar gives families the opportunity to model positive behavior through feel-good fun with interactive stories and immersive activities.
