The Festive Frog is an empathy-building exercise for kids. Every day over the month of December I’ll post a rhyming note (from the frog) with an activity, gift suggestion, or exercise designed to foster generosity and empathy in your kids, but in a fun and joyful way. I’ll also post all the supplies you need, and give you a few days advance warning so you have time to have everything at the ready. The frog is not religious and is not linked to any specific holiday, but it is explicitly anti-racist and pro-environment. If you’d like to join in, pick out a frog and check here for regular updates.
My aim is to give you 31 fun, pre-planned, empathy-building ideas for children and a break from planning every single thing yourself.
If you are looking for some possible frogs, I love this Jellycat option and this dapper gent. Of course, please shop local if you’re able to, and choose the frog that appeals to you the most!
