The holidays are coming fast and school break is just around the corner. Will you be traveling? Visiting with family? Staying home with your kids?

No matter where you will be, there’s always plenty of downtime over break. Having some good quiet activities on hand for the kiddos is essential. Bonus points if the activity is not only fun but also offers a humane education teaching opportunity rolled into one. 

I am happy to offer many FREE downloadable activities on the Fun Stuff page on my Team Kindness website.  Here’s a bit of what you will find there:

? Crossword Puzzles, Word Search Puzzles and Coloring Book Pages from the JJ The American Street Dog book series.

? Additionally, Lakes Animal Friendship Society has shared some worksheets from their Be Kind and Stay Safe Living With Cats and Dogsactivity book.

? Pima Animal Care Center offers a whole activity book Fred and Wynona’s Animal Care Activity Book that teaches kids about kindness and empathy.

? Shelter Me Photography shared a beautiful page from their wonderful coloring book Color Me Home.

And if you are looking for wonderful gifts, JJ the American Street Dog and JJ Goes to Puppy Class are on sale right now if you purchase them here. With each purchase you will receive signed copies of either book plus a FREE handmade stuffed animal that helps support animal rescue services with our friends at Compassion for Animals.

Plus there are many other wonderful recommended books on the Book Club page on Team Kindness that you can purchase as gifts for friends and family.

While staying safe and having fun are essential, having plenty of activities to choose from makes your role as a parent or a humane educator that much more pleasant. Wishing you, your families and friends- human and furry alike the happiest of holidays and a wonderful 2019!
