Day 165 - Plunged a Potty

Today's act is probably a little odd but definitely qualifies.  When the girls and I were at the pool today we noticed that one of the toilets needed plunging and ironically there was a plunger in the stall.  So for today's random act of kindness I plunged a swimming pool's restroom and hopefully saved them a future wet floor :).

Day 164 - Said Yes at Check Out

Today for my random act of kindness I made sure to check yes when asked to donate $1-$3 to a non-profit at check out.  I visited CVS and Walgreens and donated at each.  CVS was a donation toward the MDA (Muscular Dystrophy Association) and Walgreens was accepting donations for the AHA (American Heart Association).

These are so easy to ignore at checkout when employees or automated systems ask you to donate but even the smallest donation makes a difference.  Today I challenge you to check Yes at checkout!

Day 163 - Tie Dye and Headbands for the Soccer Team

The girls had their first indoor soccer practice tonight and their season begins Saturday.  Most of the girls are from our outdoor team so they are using the same uniforms they have for outdoor.

For today's random act of kindness Chris and I decided to purchase all the girls on the team tie dye socks and headbands to match their uniforms.  Just to add a little bit of flair.

Day 162 - Supplies to the SPCA

Today I thought would be a great day to help out the SPCA.  I went to my favorite store and grabbed some pet food, snacks, leashes, toys, and cleaning supplies.  Before grabbing the supplies I checked the SPCA's website for their most needed items.  I swung by to drop off the donations but they were closed so I left them by the front door.

I really hope these supplies help and that they put a smile on the employee's face that finds them.

Day 161 - Donated Books to Honor Maurice Sendak

Today would have been Maurice Sendak's 85th birthday.  Maurice Bernard Sendak was an American illustrator and writer of children's books. He became widely known for his book Where the Wild Things Are, first published in 1963.  As I child, and now as an adult, I love Where the Wild Things Are.  Such an amazingly written and illustrated book that really allows the reader to let their imagination run WILD.

So in honor of Maurice Sendak's birthday and for today's random act of kindness I donated $5 for 2 books to We Give Books.  We Give Books put books in the hands of children who don't have them and is also donating 5,000 books to Oklahoma schools affected by the recent disaster.  So for each $5 someone donates by June 30, they will share two more books with students in Oklahoma.

Day 160 - Left Bubbles at the Park

I actually saw this idea on a couple of other blogs and loved it.  One blogger did the bubbles and another a board game.  Such a fun random act and I'm sure someone will definitely get some fun out of it.  The summer is that time of year when kids get to stay up a bit later and really get to enjoy their time off.  I know the perfect child will find these bubbles and have a blast with them.

For today's random act of kindness I left a big container of bubbles at our neighborhood park.

Day 159 - Arcade Tokens for a Stranger

We went to a fun little birthday party today at a bounce house and the kids each received a bag of tokens to play with.  The girls didn't use all their token during the party so for today's random act of kindness we left a bag of tokens outside the facility for the next person.  Hope they enjoyed a few extra games!
