Giving Thanks

One of the things that I really like about Thanksgiving is that it causes you to pause and give thanks.

To help Megan stop and give thanks we have been working on a thankful book.


We are using the alphabet and daily stop to write in the thankful book.


Certainly something I want to keep so I had Megan write her name and year on the back of the book.


I am always looking for few things to do with Megan. I would love to hear ways to help your children to stop and count their blessings.

I hope you are taking time to enjoy the simple moments!

Good job mom! Teaching your child to be thankful will go far as I work with people who never learned that lesson. Again I say, good job!

What a cute idea. We make a thankful tree. I make a tree out of brown construction paper and leaves out of colored. Each family member writes what they are thankful for on the leaves. I hope you have a great week.

Blessings,
