Fun Thanksgiving Ideas |
By: Alice & Mila
Thanksgiving is a special time of the year. It’s a time for families to get together and celebrate everything they have to be thankful for. Help make this Thanksgiving extra special for the kids by trying one of these fun Thanksgiving ideas:
Thanksgiving Crafts – Make cornucopias out of construction paper and fill with dried berries, twigs, leaves and other autumn findings. Use them as fun thanksgiving decorations.
Thanksgiving Treats – Bake a thanksgiving cake by following a simple cake recipe and decorating in a Thanksgiving theme. Cupcakes are always a big hit too.
Thanksgiving Memento – Help your kids make a special thanksgiving scrapbook where you can keep a record of each Thanksgiving. Give them a disposable or digital camera for older kids and let them take snaps of all their relatives during the dinner. Add the pictures to the scrapbook along with little snippets of how they felt that day, decorations and anything else that will bring back memories of this special holiday.
Thanksgiving Baskets – The holidays are a great time for giving and while you’re giving thanks for everything you have it’s good to teach the kids that there are many others who are less fortunate. You can start a holiday tradition of making baskets to take to your local shelter or elderly home. Fill the baskets with practical items as well as a few goodies. Decorate them and add a little card for that special touch.
