There are plenty of opportunities that for children to join volunteering. And there’s no reason not to start early—young children may not fully grasp the concept of volunteering, but taking part in these activities from an early age will help establish service as a regular part of their lives. These three family-friendly projects are a great place to start:Spending time with older members of your community benefits both your children and the elderly. Nursing homes often welcome children as young as 2 to visit with residents — some even schedule special toddler days. But even if your neighborhood nursing home doesn’t, organizing a visit can be as easy as calling to see if you’re welcome to drop by. Before you go, have your child create holiday or birthday cards to deliver to the residents.By the time they enter preschool, many kids are crying for a long list of “wants,” particularly around the winter holidays. Teach children that the holidays are more about giving than they are about getting by seeking out a local social service agency that organizes an adopt-a-family program. Then, armed with the ages of the family members and their wish lists, take your child shopping for gifts, wrap them together and make homemade cards.Neighborhood organizations often host seasonal clean-up days for parks and other public areas. Even young children can pick up trash, rake leaves, and plant gardens. This is a great opportunity to get young children outside as they begin to learn about giving back locally and taking pride in their community.
