The Kindness Mouse – The Perfect Holiday Gift

Original blog by Tourism Windsor Essex

Tourism Windsor Essex Pelee Island has joined forces with WEtech Alliance to bring you a special feature highlighting the incredible regional entrepreneurs and companies innovating and driving change in their fields. Innovation comes in many forms, shapes, and sizes, and this guide showcases a curated collection of unique and distinctive gifts—perfect for anyone looking for something special this holiday season.

The Kindness Mouse

The Kindness Mouse™ from wonderwell.ca is embracing the holiday season as a way to spread good values and support your child’s social and emotional well-being.

The Kindness Mouse™ is a playful adventure for kids focused on fun, empathy, and inspiring the good within. The activity set includes a story, a plush mouse character, and a set of activity cards.

We begin with the story ‘When a Mouse is at Your Door,’ where we meet a Mouse on a journey—much like all of us—seeking its place, longing for connection, and ultimately searching for kindness. The Mouse convinces the family to let it stay and join them on an adventure. From there, we have a traveling Mouse that delivers prompts for kindness, compassion, and inspiring the good within. The set includes 24 cards, giving caregivers the flexibility to choose the duration and frequency—whether daily, weekly, or monthly.

Everyone can use a little more kindness in their life, and what better place to start then with young children, helping to build a foundation of caring. Kind children grown into kind adults who build a kinder world. Kindness helps children feel happier, more connected and have a greater sense of belonging.

The Kindness Mouse™ is not just confined to the holiday season, it is a valuable play experience that can be enjoyed all year round. When a child wakes up to see where their mouse traveled, it’s a magical experience. It’s a small effort from the parent for a big response from the child. The mouse moves to fun, silly, or hidden places within the home (these don’t have to be elaborate setups). Through that big response, children learn about kindness in a way that is memorable, shareable, and lasting. It becomes a conversation piece both in and out of the home.

The Kindness Mouse™ Activity Set features a storybook, a plush mouse, a backpack, and 24 activity cards, plus a bonus holiday hat and scarf set.

The Kindness Mouse™ Activity Set is now available at wonderwell.ca and select pop-up and retail events in Windsor-Essex this holiday season. Find the full list of locations on their website.
