RIPPLE EFFECT

Make a difference—for you and your community—with this thoughtful kit that includes 52 simple activities to foster kindness every week of the year.

You know that feeling you get when you change someone’s day for the better? That’s what’s inside this box. This activity kit includes a journal featuring 52 weeks of simple activities, 12 greeting cards with envelopes, 4 little tokens to give away, 8 stickers to share, and 2 mini posters to brighten your neighborhood—everything you need to make a difference.

Just a few inspiring activities you’ll find inside:

Wish some random strangers a very good day: Leave the house with the “I hope you have a wonderful day” and “I hope you have a truly great day” tokens, and be on the lookout for the perfect place to leave them—on park benches or bus seats, café tables, grocery store checkouts, vending machines, inside library books… The sky’s the limit. Imagine each one as a little ray of sunshine you’re leaving behind for someone else to find.

Leave a site-specific gift: A box of sidewalk chalk at a playground, a roll of quarters at a laundromat, a coupon next to the item it’s for, a dollar bill taped to a vending machine… The perfect gift in the perfect place will put a smile on someone’s face! Use on of the “a gift for you” stickers so people know it’s theirs for the taking—then know that this is going to be an unexpected delight for someone very soon.

Create a place for connection: We can all use a reminder to be in touch with the people we love and appreciate. Find the “stop here for just a moment and text someone you love” mini poster and think of a place it might be noticed—a telephone pole, a public bulletin board, a refrigerator at work, the wall of a public restroom. Then tape it up and think of all the connection you are setting into motion.

Use this kit to bring a little unexpected joy to your friends, your family, your coworkers, your community… and the world around you. It doesn’t take a lot—most of these activities can be completed in under an hour. Just add your heart and your enthusiasm to the mix, and you’re about to change everything.
