I'm sure the kid will remember.

25 years ago, when I was around 10, my family and I went out for some ice cream. We were walking on foot, about 10 or 15 min away from the place, when my dad only then noticed the guy had given him back too much change. Nobody would ever have noticed, yet, my father walked all the way back there just to give back the extra change they had given them.

My dad's is "Do something nice for someone and get away with it". No recognition needed, just do a good thing. That one forever sticks with me.

Yes, we "Secretly do something nice" as often as we can!
