By accepting your Joy of the Day invitation and sharing your Plays4Joy—a simple activity that brings you joy—you can help kids build confidence, connection and resilience. Your Joy of the Day video will reach kids across the nation—giving them something real they can try, learn from and carry into their own lives.

Each Joy of the Day video is paired with a simple classroom or team activity so everyone can get in the game and experience the power of your Plays4Joy!
