Thankful All Year Round
I know many of you made a Thankful Tree for the Thanksgiving season. We had so much fun making ours and talking about what we are thankful for, I just wasn't ready to put it away when it came time to get out the Christmas decorations. So we made our tree into a Christmas/Winter Thankful Tree.

Why not think about how blessed we are all year not just at Thanksgiving!?! So we are going to leave our tree up all year and change it along with the seasons. For winter, we made paper snowflakes together as a family (as part of our 25 Days of Christmas Fun) and as we hung them up we said something we were thankful for. When Spring rolls around, we will do the same thing with handmade paper eggs (I haven't decided what I want to make for our Summer Tree yet). Any suggestions?
What are you thankful for this Christmas season?

Oh my goodness, can I copy this idea?! I love it. We did a thankful turkey, and I thought about recreating it on the christmas trees I've cut out of foam, but this is lasting!
ReplyDeleteYes! Please do...that's why I posted it :) It turned into two fun activities...cutting out snowflakes then hanging them and saying things they were thankful for (and I told them to try and say some different things than they did at Thanksgiving).
DeleteHow Cute! I love this idea! Thank you for linking up and sharing! Next Thanksgiving, a thankful tree will be on my list of things to do! :) Hope to see you back at Thrifty Thursday next week!
