How can you share your good cheer? Share it with a RAK (Random Act of Kindness). Do something unexpected and nice for someone else. Make a game of it with your kids, it is a lot of fun and doesn’t have to cost any money. Here are some of the things we have done:

• Let the person behind you in line at the grocery store go before you, even if they have a full cart.
• Offer to return a strangers shopping cart back to the cart corral in a busy parking lot.
• Pay the toll for the car behind you.
• Leave a thank-you card for a waiter or waitress.
• Smile at someone who looks sad or lonely.
• Help a neighbor carry their groceries in from the car.

That is just a small list. Try it. See how many RAKs you and your children can accomplish in a day or week. Make it a habit of helping. You will feel better and so will those that you help.
