(gentle music) - Hi, my name is Taryn.
I am a kid and I am a helper.
One of the best ways we could be helpers is by being kind and caring to the people we meet.
- Hi.
- Kids can be helpers in many ways.
We could speak up if something is wrong.
We could donate toys or food.
We can make thoughtful notes or pictures.
And with the help of caring grownups in our lives, we can even help by volunteering in our neighborhoods.
You can keep helping as you get bigger, and you might even choose to become a grownup helper, like a 9-1-1 operator, teacher, doctor, or even a president.
Kids are important helpers in our neighborhood because we are the future.
