A simple thing we are going to do this year starting November 1st through Thanksgiving are gratitude leaves. Every day each child will pick a leaf and name something they are grateful for. They can help me write it down or draw a picture. Then we are going to put it up around the house so by Thanksgiving we will have a very colorful and grateful (hopefully) house. :)
Here are the leaves we will be using |
Love this idea! =)

We share what we were thankful for every night before bedtime. But I like your idea as an additional visual way to foster gratitude in our home.
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful idea. We are doing this in our home this month. Thank you for sharing.
