If you follow Macaroni Kid Downriver on Facebook, you may have seen I recently shared an advent of kindness from the Tie Tuesday Project. This got me thinking, why couldn't I create my own advent of kindness and share with all of you? Then, have fun this month posting about the different random acts of kindness we perform.
So here is the deal, follow this calendar of random acts of kindness and take pictures. Then either tag Macaroni Kid Downriver on Instagram or Facebook or email blairs@macaronikid.com. You may be featured in this month's weekly random acts of kindness feature!
