Make a card that hugs you back

Celebrate World Humanitarian Day

Activity time: 20 minutes

Humanitarians are people who spend their lives helping others: nurses and doctors, teachers and social workers and many more. Hear about some humanitarians and their work and think about ways we can show we care for others. 

In this video we make a hugging card to send to someone you care about.
