- This book spoke to my soul as I aspire to raise a daughter with a heart for gratitude and service. Simple Acts offers dozens of ideas any family can incorporate into the busiest of schedules. And, on a more practical note, it solved my ongoing dilemma for engaging playdate activities. If you’re sick of hearing “We’re bored†(or worse, the silence that indicates trouble), you’ll love the dozens of easy projects she recommends for a playdate with a purpose. Highly recommend!
- Raising children with a social conscience has never been easier thanks to Natalie Silverstein's brilliant and comprehensive book. As a working mother with three small children, I had been searching for ways to incorporate service in our busy family's life in meaningful and practical ways. Now I pick up Simple Acts and within minutes, I've been inspired to plan a birthday party with purpose, bring more meaning to the holidays and to incorporate special acts of kindness into our daily lives. This is a must-read for anyone wishing to foster empathy in their children in this ME, ME, ME, technology-centered environment.
- I can’t stress what an incredible book this is. Simple Acts makes volunteering,..simple. It also introduces the concept that charitable acts should happen regularly, frequently, and be a part of your family’s routine. I recommend making this book the next in line at book club.

- One of my favorite quotes from this book is "Raising kindhearted children is a marathon, not a sprint".
