Hello seedlings, i'm Khalida, and i'm
Rizwan, we're here to help you become
a learning loving kid from seed to stem
Today we are in Carmel California.
We will be talking about making a
difference in this world.
Having a growth mindset and believing
that our abilities can help anyone make
a difference in this world. So this is
episode 2 of yes I can kids. in order to
join us in learning how to be a learning
loving kid we're gonna use the big life
journal. The big life journal is an
amazing book that will help teach you
all about the growth mindset and so
parents this is a really great
investment for your kids. The link to buy
the big life journal is down below, and this whole season is
gonna leverage this book so I can't
recommend this book enough. Okay these
few weeks we're gonna be focusing on
making a difference in this world. There
are many ways you can make a difference
in this world. You can solve a problem,
help someone in need, or you can just be
kind.
Oh by the way, how'd your parents feel
when they saw your 10 things you love
about them poste? I bet they felt good!
And I bet you felt good about seeing
them feel good..
lots of good! :)  If you haven't done this
activity yet it's not too late. watch the
previous video to learn more.
Did you ask your journal buddy about
someone they knew had had made a difference?
My journal buddy is my dade.  Lets ask him. So did you like going to
school? Yes!  Well you're lucky that you
can get to go to school, but there are
lots and lots of girls around the world
who can't go to school.  There are millions of girls that are in that
situation, they can't go to school
because either their family is
too poor or because it's too dangerous
to go to school or because of
discrimination.  There's this
Pakistani girl her name is Malala
Yousafzai.  She is fighting for
girls right and ability to go to school.
I had the right to speak up. She's become
the voice for girls around the world. In
2011 CNN interviewed Malala Yousafzai a
Pakistani girl who gained international
headlines
two years earlier for speaking out for
girls education through a blog she wrote
under a pseudonym, and so she's raising
money and she's raising awareness on
this really really important issue.  
I heard it's called the Malala fund
That's right on her 16th birthday with
many people supporting her from around
the world Malala returned letting her
voice be heard delivering a speech to
the United Nations. You must not forget
that millions of children
must not forget that our sisters and
brothers are waiting for a bright
peaceful future. Let us pick up our books
and our pens, they are our most powerful
weapons. One child, one teacher, one book and one pen can change the world. You
know the last timer I went to England I went to
Oxford and I met Malala and her dad/
So Malala is an example of a
young girl who is making a huge effort
Do you know that she is the
youngest Nobel laureate in the world?
 
That is a pretty amazing fact. I didn't know that.
That is super cool!
When Houston was flooded JJ Watt raised
thirty seven million dollars for food
supplies clothing for the victims of the
flood.  Not only is he an amazing
sportsman but he's also an amazing human.
I want to go back to August 27 you and
your  team, you're in Dallas. You're
sitting in a hotel room and you're
watching hurricane Harvey just come
through Houston and just destroy the
city.  All right what at that moment as you're
watching on TV that you decide I want to
do something I want to help yeah because
you feel helpless seeing water rush down
streets that I Drive down every day I
said how can I help and so I started to
think and I said have this incredible
platform have all the social media and
all these followers let's see if I can
raise a little bit of money to help
these people out and try and get some
relief efforts going and it's going on
just look straight into the cellphone
camera start up a campaign hoping to
raise $200,000 an hour over 27 million
you did all right
he said please keep the spirit of
helping one another
alive the world is better place when we
all take care of each other
but you don't have to be an adult to
make a difference in the world in fact I
love this story about an 11 year old boy
called Garrett Lowery and Garrett loves
to knit along with playing baseball and
so when his when his relatives and his
cat died of cancer he decided to knit
head coverings for kids who lose their
hair when they have cancer their hair
starts to fall out so far so far he's
did it over a hundred different hats for
kids that have cancer
that's pretty kind when not on the field
Garrett knits caps using a loom these
are for the babies right here it started
as a class project so why why not just
make a size then Garrett enlisted the
help of his mom and grandma to make 50
caps for the kids at Children's Hospital
Colorado I just want to make something
that can make them more comfortable
while they're in the hospital not only
taught him some things but it teaches us
some things too so it's actually a very
calming thing for me to do
after a few months his labor of love
ready for delivery what have you got
here um hat hatch you worked very hard
for these yes well thank you so much
handmade gifts for kids from a kid
proving you're never too young to make a
difference I want children to feel
better about themselves and feel so that

Athena's gonna tell you a story of a man
who made shoes for kids who didn't have
shoes in Argentina have you heard of
that place
that's where Messi grew up let's listen
to the story
padishah is gonna tell us shoes for the
world
Blake Macau skis life has changed in a
few seconds he was on a trip to
Argentina when he saw people giving free
shoes to children Blake was sad to see
how many children had been going
barefoot there are too poor to buy shoes
some of them had big cuts on their feet
he wondered what would happen when their
new shoes didn't fit anymore would they
go barefoot again when he got home he
couldn't stop thinking about the
children he'd seen he wanted to do
something to help them Blake had other
businesses but he had never run a shoe
company before he called his new shoe
company Tom's which stood for
tomorrow shoes for every pair of shoes
he sold he would give one pair away his
company sold a lot of shoes on Blake's
first trip back to Argentina he had
10,000 pairs of shoes to give away three
boys took him to a field where they had
been playing soccer the field was filled
with glass and they had been playing
barefoot Blake was so happy to see the
boys wearing their new TOMS shoes now
their feet would be safe it was one of
the best moments of his life Tom's has
now given children around the world over
60 million pairs of shoes that's enough
shoes for each child in Argentina to
have six pairs
how do you think the children in
Argentina felt when they received their
first pair of shoes I think the children
in Argentina felt grateful and thankful
because they had shoes to protect their
feet and their feet were safe what steps
did Blake take to make a difference in
the world one step he took was when
someone bought a pair of shoes from him
he would automatically donate one pair
to the poor that would encourage people
from around the world to buy shoes so
they would be doing good ok for our last
activity today you are going to find
someone who you can help if you can help
them with anything and it can be anyone
