Track and celebrate acts of kindness in your family. Two template variations — a Kindness Garden and a Kindness Jar — that make compassion visible and habitual.

"Every time you're kind — to someone else, or to yourself — you make the world a little bit brighter. And kindness? It always comes back to you."

Kindness Trackers are printables that help families notice, track, and celebrate acts of kindness — making compassion a visible, daily habit.

Each tracker provides a visual way to record acts of kindness: a flower with petals to colour, a jar to fill with kindness 'gems', or a calendar with daily kindness prompts. Children add to the tracker each time they do something kind — or notice someone being kind to them.

The pack includes two template variations: a 'Kindness Garden' where each act of kindness grows a flower, and a 'Kindness Jar' where each act fills a jar with colourful gems. Both are designed to make kindness visible, celebrated, and habitual.

These trackers work because they shift attention. Instead of focusing on behaviour to fix, families start noticing the good — in their children and in each other. Children learn that kindness isn't just something we do — it's who we are. And they discover that making others feel good feels good, too.
