Kindness Rocks

“The purpose is simple; to cultivate connections within communities and lift others up through simple acts of kindness.”
Especially fun for people who “Can’t Draw/Paint” and believe they have “No Artistic Ability”
The Challenge
Create some painted rocks that can be shared within your local community
Benefits
- Cheap, easy, fun, sharable
- Focuses on positive feelings such as kindness, gratitude, joy
- Who doesn’t love a hand painted rock made specially for them?
- Can be done with felt markers or paint
- Individuals work at home but are part of a larger group that comes together thru emails to share their work and experiences
- Once physical isolation ends, a “You Rock Party” will be scheduled to celebrate our post-COVID lives
