Cut out a piece of green construction paper as shown in the sample poster below. Glue it over the piece of blue construction paper. Then cut out a few clouds on a white paper, and glue on the blue background.
If you are using the black and white pictures on pages 5–7, first color the pieces you would like to use for your poster. (Or, if using the colored version, then use pages 2–4 instead.) Then cut out the pictures of the children, the balloon seller, the animals, tree, plants, etc., that you’ve selected, and glue them on your background.
Use the colored construction paper to cut out colorful balloons. On the balloons write different ways to show kindness/compassion (e.g., be helpful, say kind words, etc.). Or you could also label the balloons with something your child did to show kindness or compassion.
Glue a small string of yarn behind each balloon and then glue at least one balloon and string to each child’s hand on the picture.
