Lisa SadikmanMay 1, 2020

Our local businesses do so much for our communities, from providing us food and flashlights to toys and toilet paper. One simple way to show them our appreciation and support is by making uplifting Signs of Positivity to post on their doors and windows.

Materials

Paper of poster board at least 8.5 x 11 inches in size
Paints, markers, pastels or other colorful art supplies

Instructions

Decorate your sign with colorful drawings or symbols, like rainbows, flowers, peace signs or hearts
Write an uplifting message, for example: Thank you for all you do for our community! We appreciate you!
Hang your sign(s) on the windows and doors of your favorite local businesses like grocery and hardware stores, book and toy stores, restaurants or any other business you want to show appreciation and love to.

"Wow, on behalf of our Girl Scouts troop, a heart-felt Thank You for the thoughtful and enlightening workshop! We are so excited about the breathing and movement skills you shared, linking the concepts of feeling good and doing good, and reminding us these calming tools are useful everyday! This was an invaluable workshop, really well done, and we so appreciate what you all do!”

"I learned that in life you have ups and you have downs. I learned something...that is not easy to learn. I learned how much one person can change a whole community."
