Flower Hill Kindergarteners Celebrate Kindness with Snoopy
January 26, 2026
Flower Hill Primary School kindergarten students celebrated kindness in a fun and meaningful way last Friday by dressing up as Snoopy!
“Thanks to the efforts of Karen Grosso, Snoopy pajamas were donated so that every kindergarten student could participate, helping to create an inclusive and joyful experience for all,” Principal Cindy Siegel said. “Students and staff proudly wore their Snoopy PJs, filling the school with smiles, laughter, and school spirit.”
Throughout the day, students engaged in ELA and math activities that were thoughtfully designed around the theme of kindness and intentionally incorporated social-emotional learning. Through these lessons, students explored empathy, cooperation, and positive decision-making. They also learned a special Snoopy-inspired kindness acronym:
S.N.O.O.P.Y. — Smile, Notice Others, Offer Help, One Kind Act, Play Fairly, You Matter.
“These activities helped students understand how small acts of kindness and thoughtful choices can make a big difference in building a caring classroom community,” Ms. Siegel said. “This special day was a wonderful example of how creativity and collaboration can come together to create a memorable and meaningful learning experience for our youngest learners.”
According to the Peanuts.com website, Snoopy first appeared on October 4, 1950. “Snoopy is not your average beagle,” states the website. “He is a book lover and a book writer. He is a collector of fine art and a root beer connoisseur. Plus, his unstoppable imagination helps keep his life anything but ordinary. As the Flying Ace, he heroically battles the Red Baron. As Joe Cool, he is the big dog on campus. But no imaginary adventure matches a nap on his doghouse—and waking up to a well-deserved supper made especially for him by that Round-Headed Kid.”
Here’s a fun fact: Snoopy reads the massive book “War and Peace” at the rate of one word a day. That’s significant because depending on how Tolstoy’s book is translated, it could run as many as 1,400 pages.
