Thank You Tree (Thanksgiving)

 

Help keep track of all your family is thankful for

during the month of November with a

Thank You Tree.

 

Step 1:

Find a nice branch to use for your tree.

Step 2:

Decorate an empty oatmeal container and fill with rocks to hold your stick in place. We also cut an X our lid to help hold our stick upright.

 

Step 3:

Ask your local paint store if you can have some of their leaf shaped paint samples for a project like we did,  or just make your own leaves out of paper. 

 

 

 

Step:4

Have your family decide together, or take turns deciding on one thing you are thankful for each day in November (dinnertime is a great time to discuss this). There are no wrong answers.  Write that thing on a leaf and hang it on the tree. By the time Thanksgiving comes your tree will be full of leaves!
