Do You Know of Any Ways I Can Volunteer with My Kids?

You already have great suggestions, and it sounds almost like you already know what you want to do, sort of. My 7 almost 8 year old son is an official volunteer at the rehab and nursing center. He goes in and reads or plays ball, or just visits with the elders living there. It made their day for sure! One lady didn't smile all day until I asked her if she wanted to play ball w/ my son... She didn't stop smiling.
Also, local animal shelters love it when kids come in even just to play with the animals. It gets the animals used to people, and kids especially, and helps them be socialized and more adoptable.
Then you can also put the little guy in a stroller and go for a walk and pick up trash on the side of the road. Just watch out for broken bottles...
Um... Oh, you can maybe make cookies or something and go to an elderly neighbors house to visit.
It is very nice of you to want to help people and teach your children to have a helpful, caring heart too.

i have no idea when or where it is this year, but i distinctly remember as a child going to the special olympics with my mom to help out. it made such a tremendous impact on me. find out when it is coming to you. i am going to do the same, thanks for the reminder :)

you can always volunteer to help out at an animal shelter (although personally, that means we run the risk of bringing home animals!) or doing something at a nursing home. A lot of old folks dont get to see their grandkids and enjoy the time with small children.

You might want to consider a "meals on wheels" route one day a week of taking food to some elderly people in your community. You children could easily accompany you on these deliveries and if you have a regular route you will become friendly with the people you deliver to each week. You could do arts and crafts projects with your daughter and include a project-- a pretty picture, a craft ornament, a table decoration or something to brighten their day. She could also learn a little song to sing for different holidays and share her songs with the people you visit.

Definitely take them to a nursing home to visit! The residents would love that. Also, she can go through toys and clothes and take them to a charity store. Making/taking a meal to a sick neighbor/friend. Do you have a food pantry or Meals on Wheels where you could help out?

Good for you. You and your kids will have a wonderful impact on someone's life. You might check with a church to see if they have a member of their congregation who could use help. I think if you just begin to ask friends or others in the community or non-profits, you'll be in more demand than you'll have time for!

The one place that is always crying out for children to visit and rarely gets them is a retirement home. Go make a senior's day special. Find an elderly woman or man in your local home and "adopt" them.

See if your local United Way has a Mother to Mother or Parent to Parent program. I both gave and gained a lot from volunteering for this program over the years. So did my children.
