We are thrilled to have partnered with Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day to create the Compassion Flower Project Garden Guide, a downloadable guide to help families plant the seeds of compassion with six weeks of simple gardening activities.
Using lessons from the garden, Mrs. Meyer’s started the Compassion Project to help parents grow compassion in kids with the mission of growing a kinder world, one seed at a time.
Explore the Compassion Projectfrom Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day and dig deeper into teaching compassion through the garden.
We want our kids to be happy. We want them to do well. But most of all, we want them to be kind!
Parents Magazine recently hosted the Growing Compassion in Kids event so that caregivers canlearn strategies for raising compassionate and generous humansfrom a panel of leading experts, including the executive director of KidsGardening, Em Shipman. Thank you, Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day, for sponsoring this amazing discussion!
A big thank you to Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day for their help in launching our new Kids Garden Community!
To celebrate the return of their Compassion Flower Hand Soap, they are providing $100K in our game-changing online community. This contribution will allow you — the parents, educators, volunteers, and communities who garden with kids — to come together in the Kids Garden Community online to ask questions, make connections, access resources, learn from each other, and stay inspire. Together, we will create change for our kids, communities and the planet.
Additional Garden Activities to Grow Kindness
Garden Activity: Friendship Fort
Having a special place to hang out with friends is a great addition to a garden or green space. A fort made of a few bamboo stakes and pole bean seeds is easy and it makesa great garden play space. Plus once the beans start producing, there are fresh and easy available snacks!
Alexi Lindeman, a senior in high school, spearheaded a reforestation program by growing acorns from seed! She’d like other kids to know that change takes time, butit all starts with caring.
