At Kidadl we pride ourselves on offering families original ideas to make the most of time spent together at home or out and about, wherever you are in the world. We strive to recommend the very best things that are suggested by our community and are things we would do ourselves - our aim is to be the trusted friend to parents.
We try our very best, but cannot guarantee perfection. We will always aim to give you accurate information at the date of publication - however, information does change, so it’s important you do your own research, double-check and make the decision that is right for your family.
Kidadl provides inspiration to entertain and educate your children. We recognise that not all activities and ideas are appropriate and suitable for all children and families or in all circumstances. Our recommended activities are based on age but these are a guide. We recommend that these ideas are used as inspiration, that ideas are undertaken with appropriate adult supervision, and that each adult uses their own discretion and knowledge of their children to consider the safety and suitability.
Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong.
This rock painting day is celebrated in the United States and many other countries around the world.
Creative art-lovers celebrate this rock-painting festival in many countries to spread kindness and make people smile.
This rock painting day first started in the year 2015 to unite people by helping them connect from all around the globe.
This rock painting festival was started under the Word Rocks Project (part of the Kindness Rocks Project) by Megan Murphy to prompt people to start involving themselves in the fun activity of painting.
This initiative taken by the Word Rocks Project is helping people around the world bond with other people and help them by spreading awareness and kindness. The day started way back in 2015.
On this day, the most important thing to do is help kids take part in this event. There is no other specific custom or tradition associated with the day except getting together, having fun, and spreading joy.
You should take kids to a park or any other outdoor space and encourage them to collect rocks and paint them. It could be turned into a scavenger hunt many other kinds of contests for kids; they could all paint rocks together, and one group could hide them with the other group seeking.
You can try your hand at painting right alongside them and paint some things that mean well and spread kindness to help make others smile and forget all worry. This day is all about making people smile with your rock painting. The rocks can be painted with written phrases as well, like 'you matter.'
According to the theme, which changes every year; people write notes on a rock and hide it in places that people could find. This day is all about spreading love and happiness. You can participate in events for painting rocks across the world.
Every year there is a different theme, and messages according to that theme are written down on the rocks on International Drop A Rock Day.
The theme for the 2018 event was 'Be the light,' and for 2020, it was 'Together.'
International Drop A Rock Day helps bring kindness and spread awareness about why kindness is necessary.
International Drop A Rock Day was founded in the USA.
It is a day to encourage people to get their creative inspiration and make people happy by spreading kindness through their paintings.
Every year, there is a different theme, and people all around the world paint the message of the theme onto the rock and hide for others to find. This day is about spreading kindness.
The simple act of kindness that can help a person change and become a better version of themselves is the motto.
Related events include World Kindness Day, International Rock Day, Good Deeds Day, and more.
You get to spread kindness and also get to explore your creativity.
