A thankful craft...


It's no secret I love crafting with my minis! It is a wonderful time for them to express themselves and share some quality time with their mama! I wanted to teach my four year old the meaning of being thankful so I explained that being thankful for something meant being so happy you have that something in your life. I then asked him what he was thankful for and had him write it down on some leaves that we made.
Dylan glued the leaves down then we made some acorns that he also glued down.
This was not only a fun craft but also meaningful. It taught Dylan what it meant to be thankful for something and gave him the opportunity to reflect on what he is thankful for. Not to mention it warmed my heart hearing what he is thankful for! Love love love these precious moments with my kiddos! We hung his artwork on his bedroom door as a daily reminder to be thankful for all the things he loves : )
