Other people can often benefit from something we have. We can give or share with them something that belongs to us, like a toy, a game, a book, food or money. We could share something we are good at, a skill or talent like art, music, sports, building things, or knowledge. We can even share a smile, our time, and ourselves with others, by being a friend and letting them be a friend to us. Herby and Jeremy are enjoying sharing their tree house with some friends.
What kinds of things have other people given or shared with you before? How did it feel when they shared with you? How can you share what you have with others?
Sharing what we have with other people not only can help them, but it helps us, too. We feel better when we make other people a part of our lives. If someone shares something with you, be thankful and respectful of what they share. Think about others around you and what you can give and share with them, because our lives are “more fun when they’re shared.”
People are all around you. Some people you know, and some you don’t. Some may be part of your family, like parents, grandparents, sisters, brothers, and relatives. Some are your friends, and some are your neighbors, teachers, and other people in your school and community. People are important. They can help each other, love each other, and have fun together. And as Herby and Jeremy find out, they can even build a tree house together.
Do you ever feel lonely? How are other people important and helpful to you? How can you be helpful to them?
We all need other people in our lives. It is important to have family and friends and be a part of a community that is made up of different people that interact, cooperate, and help each other. Think about the other people that are around you and how you can help them, because life is better when you can “do it together!”
