Activity Ideas

Have you heard about this wonderful idea called The Birthday Project?

It was started by this woman. Her name is Robyn Bomar.

Having been inspired by an LDS  friend, she decided to do 38 Random Acts of Kindness to celebrate her 38th birthday and invited others to join her.

Here are just a few things she and her family did:

Returned grocery carts in store parking lots

Bought a gift card for groceries and turned around  and handed it to woman in line behind her. 

Walked up to a family eating lunch at a local restaurant, placed a gift card on their table and walked out.

Dropped off several hand written thank you notes and doughnuts at the police station.

Handed out Mylar balloons to children shopping with their parents.

Taped change to vending machines.

Wrote a letter to old friend and mailed it.

Brought in the neighbor’s garbage can for them.

Took  a large bag of clothes to the local homeless shelter.

There are so many layers here. Wouldn’t this be a fun way to celebrate all kinds of birthdays? Which birthdays would our Young Women want to celebrate this way? And what kinds of acts of kindness would they come up? Your next class presidency meeting with them would be a great place to bring it up.
