Beavers and
Kindness just go naturally together!
In
working on our centennial crest we did not tell our Colony that we were
watching them but we did tell parents and we were on the lookout
ourselves. These amazing young people
gave us cause to be proud. And these are
just the times we caught them.
Little
brother received a toy at Christmas that required a lot of assembly and no one
seemed to have the time to put it together for him, so he was very sad. Seeing
how upset his brother was this Beaver decided to stop playing with his own toys
and assemble the Neo Shifter for him.
One
day this Beaver was watching one of his favourite movies and noticed that one
of our dogs wasn’t feeling well. He decided to stop watching the movie and
spend the time hugging and talking to the dog to make him feel better.
There was
one day at school one young student had gotten hurt and was crying. This Beaver took it upon himself to take this
child to the office and then stayed until he was sure the student was ok.
In playing
a game this Beaver noticed another was a bit confused. Instead of just tagging
the other and continuing to have fun himself, this Beaver made a point of
whispering what to do to the other Beaver.
This meant that both could have fun and enjoy the game.
When a boy
was upset about breaking the necklace he made for his Mom, this Beaver gave him
the one he had made for his own Mom.
In a big snowstorm in January this Beaver along with Mom and Dad
went and shoveled the walk and driveway for some friends because the dad had a
cast on his leg
Being the oldest at his daycare provider he is very helpful and considerate
with the younger children. This Beaver
likes to get things for the baby like his blanket and his drink. He helps the baby get unstuck and open toys
etc. when needed. This helpful Beaver is
always making sure everyone is OK.
During
home renovations he has been there from the start. Without being asked he'll grab his boots and go
down to lend a helping hand.
At
our Beaver potluck in January one of our leaders caught him in the act. His
little sister was having problems with her shoes. All she said to him was can you please
help. This Beaver immediately stopped to
help (and even put his food down to do it)
This Beaver
regularly looks after the dog without being asked.
When
someone wasn’t feeling well this Beaver brought them a blanket, pillow and
something to cuddle
When this
Beaver’s little brother was sick with a high fever, he went and got him a cold
cloth.
When this
Beaver’s Mom was not feeling well he voluntarily ran and got things for her.
This Beaver
not only asks to help with the housework.
He then does it!
While
waiting for day surgery, this Beaver made a new friend. While in recovery this Beaver was given some
presents to open. When he noticed his
new friend didn’t have any gifts, this Beaver sent his Dad with a new hot wheel
over to his friend so he had something to play with too.
This
Beaver’s little brother forgot his hat and mitts in the daycare but didn’t
realize until he was already in his seat.
He started to cry so this Beaver, being a great big brother, went back
in to get hat and mitts. He helped Dad
out and made little brother’s day
One night
this Beaver gave up his choice of movie to let his older brother choose.
This Beaver
cleaned up the living room without being asked
This Beaver
actually saw the toilet paper holders were empty and filled them himself.
When
someone drops something this Beaver runs to pick it up.
When a
family member was away this Beaver looked after their fish.
This Beaver
donated 1% of his penny bank to Jump Rope for Heart.
This Beaver
let his sister take the last Rice Krispie square.
When he saw
garbage lying around outside this Beaver picked it up.
Because his
grandmother lives alone this Beaver helps her with her housework and her
outside work.
This Beaver
regularly asks to help with things like snow removal and grass clean up.
