Times are tough right now, and we want to help you spread a little kindness to a loved one and brighten up their day 😊. Maybe they need some help entertaining the children, maybe they deserve a tasty treat – or both!⁠

• FOLLOW both @byokits AND @thewildteabar⁠
• You don’t need to like or share, but it always helps 😊⁠
⁠
You can enter multiple times, but make sure you tag your friends/loved ones in separate comments or it won’t count. ⁠
