My throat is a little scratchy from the rainy weather we are having or I’d send you a video of me singing “Oh, happy day!” ????
Are you humming that in your head now? ????
I’m featuring the #SmileStarter Pets — because they make me smile.
#SmileStarting people do too. ????
Each day this week there are 3 Smile Starter Hunts.
If you haven’t signed up to be a Smile Starter Presenter you can do that below. That’s where you estimate how many Smile Starter Awards you plan to award. This lets us count your number toward our goal of recognizing 1 Million Smile Starters.
Once you sign up you’ll get your free graphics — including the ones for pets. We also have some awards that you can purchase if that makes you smile.
Also, this week we want to make it easier for people to find smile starting posts on social media. The easiest way to do that — tag posts that make you smile with #SmileStarter.
Hunt for Happiness Week — Day Five
- Recognize someone who helped you that made you smile–it can be someone who opened a door for you, a delivery person, someone who helped you with a work project. We even have free graphics that you can attach to a FB or Twitter post.
- Recognize your favorite smile starting app. If you’re on social media make a post like: My (fill in the blank) app is a #SmileStarter because “and tell people what you like about it or why they should use it.”
- Recognize someone else’s social media post with the #SmileStarter hashtag in the comments or share it with the #SmileStarter hashtag.
We want to make it easier for people to find social media posts that start smiles.
If you don’t see any, check out my social media pages, the Society’s FB page, or the Happiness Happens Month page.
Thank you for helping us hunt for a little happiness and starting a few smiles.
Want To Start A Few Smiles?
You can donate our unique Smile Starter Award bookmarks to either a school, library, or community organization. If you want to start a few smiles but don’t know where to donate them we’ll find a place.
And your donation will help us reach our goal of One Million Smile Starter Awards.
Of course, you can also buy some to pass out to your personal Smile Starters. ????
