It only takes five minutes to start your day right. That's the lesson that Katie (Keefe) Wood '04 has been teaching to children ages 5 to 15 through her journal for kids, A Simple Seed of Growth, Gratitude & Giggles. The elementary and special education major developed the daily prompts to help her own children thrive during the pandemic. Since the journal was published in the spring, thousands of students have started their days with it, including kids in Uvalde, Texas.
