Thankful Days

Last year, ucreate had a Thankful Countdown.
We didn't do it last year, but I was really excited to try it this year now that the twins are a little older.

On Monday, we had FHE and talked about things we were grateful for. We wrote them on fruit and veggies and put them in our cornucopia.


Then we cut out our feathers to send to family and friends for our Thankful Thanksgiving Turkey.

All this past week, we have picked something out of the jar and talked about why we are thankful for that thing. There is an activity that goes along with it too...

Here are the activities we did this week.
Thankful for Turkeys
Make Paper Turkey Art Project
We sent our Turkey Feathers out!

Thankful for Mom!
Berkleigh and Merrick helped me make dinner.
I was making Cilantro Pesto, and Berkleigh pulled off EVERY single leaf of 2 bunches of cilantro.
That was a huge help.!

Thankful for our house!
We cleaned our house and our rooms!

Thankful for Grandparents.
