Have you heard of Kindness rocks or the Kindness rock painting movement. It’s all about painting rocks and hiding them in wonderful places for others to find and I think it’s a fantastic idea. In fact my daughter and I are going to be hiding some of our rocks near her school for kids to find. It’s going to be super fun.

Today we have a wonderful collection of rock stones to share. We have contributions from different parts of the world, from the UK, to Texas, to Florida and beyond.

  1. We have a huge rock in our garden and I’ve been wondering what to do with it and now I know. I love this idea of hiding them for others it’s a bit like that geocaching

  2. This is so beautiful! Rock painting has recently caught up in my town where we have to find a rock, paint it then hide it for someone else to find it. We now love heading for walks just to find some cool stones.

  3. My daughter loves painting rocks, we have loads scattered around the house. She actually got a really nice rock painting kit for Christmas x
