This week is about Mindfulness. Mindfulness simply means being aware. To be mindful we want to be aware of things around us and be aware of our feelings. It's like being in the moment and not thinking about things outside of now. I am giving you a Mindfulness Scavenger Hunt to do this week. See if you are able to do them all!
Listen to the book "I Am Human." It's a good reminder that although we all have differences, we are all still human and need to treat each other well. We also need to treat ourselves well and know that it is ok to make mistakes! After you listen to the book, in the first worksheet you can write answers to the questions or draw a picture that answers it. The last three worksheets are coloring sheets you can choose to print and color.
