Our hippo program supported 1,400 children in 2020 #behipyyc #hippo #play#creative

We know January can be a hard month with the holidays over and the cold, long wintery days now here. We want to share fun things to do to outside as a family. You can give plastic squeeze bottles or Jello molds and food coloring (to make snow art), snowman materials like buttons, carrot or a scarf to decorate him, hot chocolate packets or s‘more supplies, bird seed bells or crazy carpet sleds. You can also write out what your favorite winter things to do as a family. Your ideas will be shared with the families we serve to make winter fun! Post your pictures on our FB of how your family makes winter fun!

We all have a choice, to start each day, with small purposeful acts of kindness that connects good to others, which creates a small ripple that can help make someone's day a litte brighter with a hug, a smile, a note or a meal. We have 1300 smile recruiters under the age of 12 years old, choosing to be kind. Come play with us and help share the amazing stories that others have to tell :)

Today is National Cookie Day! Why not bake your favorites as a family this weekend and share them with a neighbor! Tell us your favourite cookie in our comments! #Nationalcookieday #behipyyc #sweetvolunteering
