All about happiness (Kids’ Guide)

What is happiness?
Happiness is that warm, sunny feeling you get when you're doing something you love, like riding your bike, snuggling with your pet, or laughing at a silly joke.
It’s not just one feeling. Sometimes happiness feels like giggles, other times it feels like calm.
Why is happiness good for you?
Just like healthy food helps your body grow, happy feelings help your brain and heart feel strong!
