The mission of KLRN is to open a world of lifelong learning through trustworthy and enriching programs on-air, online and in our community.
Dear Families,

As parents we expect to raise children to be kind, respectful and obedient as well as have good manners. But many times, unless we teach our children with our own examples how to be kind, children don’t really know. The best thing we can do to make the world a better place is to create a culture of kindness in your own home.

It is quite easy to show children how to be kind but we do need to talk about the topic with children. Kindness is about “seeing with your heart,” explains Angela C. Santomero, author of Radical Kindness: The Life-Changing Power of Giving and Receiving and co-creator of Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood. For our littlest kids, this might mean patting the back of a worried friend, waving to an elderly neighbor, or breaking a cookie in half to share with a younger brother. For older kids, kindness might be inviting a lonely classmate to join their lunch table, comforting someone who’s sad or scared, or donating some of their allowance to a cause they care about.

Whatever it means to your family, it’s important to help nurture it in your children from a young age. Making our country a kinder place may seem daunting these days, but fostering compassion in your family is entirely doable.

You can find additional resources at pbs.org/parents, a trusted PBS source. Also be sure to check out KLRN’s Learn at Home page for additional resources such as the daily calendar of activities for you to engage with your child especially during the winter break.

Please reach out to us any time at education@klrn.org.

KLRN wishes your families a safe season.
With appreciation,

Healthy Kids
KLRN’s Healthy Kids Project supports healthy lifestyles by influencing eating decisions and physical activities. Through project resources, the audience is introduced to songs, live action movement, animation, and a cast of “perfectly imperfect” characters to deliver key messaging that contrasts healthy choices and attitudes with unhealthy behaviors. Lessons include activities for children ages 0-9 and all school age lessons are aligned to the TEKS.
