This month, try something new that you’ve never tried before! This can be something big or something small, but it should be something that is new to you. Here are some ideas:

• Try a new kind of food, especially a new fruit or vegetable.
• Learn how to say some words in a new language.
• Make a new friend or sit with a new person at the lunch table.
• Play a sport you’ve never played before.
• Listen to a different kind of music, or music from another part of the world.
• Learn about how children live in other cultures. There are many organizations that will match people up with pen pals in other countries. (Kids, ask your parents for help with this!)
• Learn the names of your mailman, grocery clerk, school crossing guard, or others who help you every day. You might even give them a thank you card to show them you appreciate them.
