Teaching about kindness and acceptance seems more important than ever, especially at Christmas.
Here’s a fun and FREE activity to share with your class or children.
It’s very easy: just cut out and assemble the two pieces of Santa’s loooooong beard.
Students give Santa a trim each day – after completing the act of kindness written in each section.
Choose the version you want: PDF or EDITABLE PowerPoint file (add your own acts of kindness to each section).

These are just perfect for my kinder-bears. They will be a great way to work on our sentence building and our mechanics, too. I know these will produce some wonderful memories for parents to stash away for the future. Thank you.
