Reflection Activities: Animals

Reflection Questions

- Why are animals so important to me?

- What are special memories that I have of working with, playing with or helping animals?

- What are stories about some animals that have been special to our family (perhaps current or past pets)?

- What kinds of changes would we be interested in seeing for animals?

- How do I feel when I volunteer with or for animals?

- What books or movies increased my love and compassion for animals?

- What are some goals I would like to make and keep to help animals in the future?

- Ask some adults and friends why animals are important to them.

For each of these areas, come up with additional questions and activities that help your volunteer experience become more meaningful to your family.

Do you have any ideas for reflection activities and/or questions that you would like to share with other families and The Volunteer Family? (Email us!)
