Reach Out and Give
Cheri J. Meiners, M.Ed.


Even very young children can help to make the world a better place. This book begins with the concept of gratitude, because feeling grateful is a powerful motivator. Words and pictures show children contributing to their community in simple yet meaningful ways. Includes discussion questions, generosity games, and ideas for service projects.

Simple Ideas for Giving Service:

  • Get pledges for reading or doing math to benefit a charity
  • Collect canned goods for a food bank
  • Send a box of books or snacks to soldiers
  • Make a quilt or blanket for a hospital or shelter
  • Visit and play games with people in a senior center or nursing home
  • Collect and donate money for disaster victims
  • Collect used eyeglasses for an eye bank

  • Take part in a toy or clothing drive
  • Raise money or collect packaged food for an animal shelter
  • Plant spring bulbs at a park
