Bryan and I were trying to come up with some fun family gratitude ideas to do with the boys! I wanted to share them incase you wanted to implement in your home :)
So all year I am all about thankfulls (love my made up word)! We talk about your highs and lows at dinner and I have this, "tell me somthin good" song that I sing to the boys and then they tell me something! I have always loved it!
Here are the two holiday ideas that we are doing in the O'Halloran house! Comment below if you are going to be trying one out and I would love to hear how it goes ;)
1. I bought this Postal Wrapping Paper off of Amazon and we are going to use it as our tablecloth for Thanksgiving (and probably a couple days after)! I am going to lay out markers and write the everyones names above their plates! The boys can doodle all day (especially while mommy is glued to the Thanksgiving day parade...My favorite;)) and then that night before we eat we will write down and share our three thankfulls! Just thinking about it, I get the warm and fuzzes.
2. A grateful jar! This girl LOVES mason jars, so I am always looking for fun ideas, so that I get to use them. Super simple too...just print off a cute tag from Pinterest, add some pretty ribbon, tie, and done!!! I just cut up some computer paper and set it on the table. I told the boys to tell us when they think of something they are thankful for. So far I have gotten: mommy (heart melts), daddy (melt again), cars, Paw Patrol, riding bikes outside, cookies, mac & cheese, dinner, hummus, yogurt, school... It's so fun to hear what they say and they like hearing ours as well.
Enjoy your family,
Deanna
