Mindful friendships mean paying attention to how we treat our friends and how they treat us. Being a good, mindful friend is important for children because it helps them build strong, caring relationships. Being a good friend looks like listening, sharing, and being kind. It means helping each other and being there when someone is sad or needs support. Mindful friendships help children understand and respect each other's feelings, making their friendships fun and supportive. This helps children feel connected and happy and teaches them how to get along well with others.
