Since I have decided to be part of the 30 Day of Thanksgiving, I thought it would be fun if Munchkin joined in on the fun. I created this workbox activity to allow her to easily participate with me.
Each day, Munchkin will write at least one sentence on a feather about what she is thankful for that day. We will add the feathers to our thankful turkey. By the end of November, she will have a turkey with lots of feathers and a visual way to see all the things that we are thankful for this month.
In case you would like to join us, I’m posting jpg pictures that you are free to use to create your own thankful turkey (just click on image and “save as” to your computer). You can also download the pdf version here. If you do decide to do the craft, I would love to see the finished products at the end of the month. I may even have a way for everyone to link up, so we can see all of the great creations. Let me know if this is something that would interest you.
Sometimes when things are tough, it is easy to lose sight of all of the wonderful things that we do have in our lives. Today, I am thankful that I have a computer and printer. I use them so much without really thinking about it, but like would be much more difficult if I didn’t have them.
Thanks for linking to Handmade Holidays. I am going to HAVE to do this with my kids. They are definitely needing some thankful lessons these days. :o)
Great idea!
