2. Pumpkin Pie Craft

Nothing says Thanksgiving like pumpkin pie! Even if your kid’s don’t love the iconic dessert, they will thoroughly enjoy making this paper version. Grab a paper plate, some tissue paper, some cotton balls and glue- it’s time to get your craft on. Probably the best part about this activity is that it’s calorie-free!

3. Gratefulness Rocks

Thanksgiving is all about reflecting on all we have to be grateful for, and there’s no better time to start teaching our kids this practice then when they’re young! This project couldn’t get any easier. Send the kiddos out to look for smooth rocks, and then help them write out their ideas on the rocks, using paint pens or paint. I love the idea of also designing the rocks to look like the item they’re thankful for, like in the photo above, don’t you? These would be a sweet decor for your garden as well.
