Helping my neighbor, community, and nation.
👨👩👧👦 Tips for Parents:
➡️ Teach Responsibility at Home – Give age-appropriate chores and explain their importance. Example: “You’re helping the whole family by feeding the dog. That’s what good citizens do – they help others.”
➡️ Model Respect and Kindness – Kids learn by watching! Show respect in your words and actions, especially when talking about others. Try saying: “Even if we disagree, we still treat people kindly.”
➡️ Describe a Time – Ask your child to share a time when they helped others or did something positive for the school or community. Examples: welcoming a new student, helping with dinner, or donating books and toys.
💙 Let’s work together to build responsible, kind, and respectful citizens at home and in our community!
