Free Printable Random Acts Of Kindness Cards

Isn’t it such a great feeling when someone unexpectedly does something nice for you? Sometimes when you needed it most? I wanted to bottle that feeling so we can give it to our kids and they can spark that joy for others. To help them discover the power of small gestures, I’ve created these free printable random acts of kindness cards that are perfect for little hands and big hearts.

While we’re trying to fill our children’s hearts with more positive energy, this also happens to us, and this is definitely one of the best parts of raising them.

But really, the even better part about these cards is seeing the pure delight on a child’s face when their small act makes a big impact!

I know you’re busy, so I made these as ready-to-go as possible! You’ll find these free printable random acts of kindness cards laid out on 2 sheets of standard 8.5×11″ U.S. Letter paper, each packed with 8 bright and cheerful cards (so 16 cards in total).

At a sweet 3.75 x 2.5 inches each, they’re just right for tucking into a pocket or a tiny hand, ready for their moment to shine.

These cards are fun and pretty, but more importantly, they are catalysts for character development and empathy. And you can be sure they’ll also spark heartwarming conversation about caring for others, making kindness a natural part of everyday life.

And listen, the Internet is full of ideas for random acts of kindness, but where do you start? I did my best to choose the most actionable ones, because yes, being kind requires some effort!

I also highly recommend printing them on cardstock. Regular paper cards crumple so easily!
