12 Free Printable Kindness Coloring Pages

Kindness might be one of the most important things we can teach children.

People underrate the value of being kind. But being empathetic and compassionate are valuable life skills. Luckily, children are born with an extra dash of sweetness. That means you can easily help them to be kind through learning activities, printables, games, and coloring pages.

Make Kindness Your Default

Kids are super observant, so the best way to help them cultivate kindness is by modeling it. But, sometimes, that can be tricky. So having some fun kindness artwork in your home or classroom can serve as a great reminder.

Coloring pages with kindness themes are a great way to help your kids create their own visual art to remind them what kindness looks like. It could be a smile, a kind word, or even accepting your mistakes. Kindness isn’t just something you offer others; it is also important for yourself.

Coloring also has fantastic benefits for kids, such as improved focus and reduced anxiety. Not to mention they will love having their colorful creations up in their space. Coloring, like kindness, makes you happier. So combining the two seems like a double dose of positive vibes.
