Americans celebrate Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday of November. Though it’s a thoroughly American holiday, the celebration of Thanksgiving is deeply rooted in faith. Gratitude for our blessings is one of the many virtues we seek to cultivate in children. Pflaum provides a number of free activities for use in the classroom or to assign as take-home work when your class is not in session. The activities are for all ages, from preschool (Seeds) through middle school (Visions) and are available to download and print or to share a link with your families.
Thanksgiving activities include:
- A Basket of Blessings (for Seeds children; available in Spanish and English)
- A Giving Thanks Prayer Poem (for Seeds children; available in Spanish and English)
- Being Grateful (for Good News children; available in Spanish and English)
- Gratitude Place Cards (for Venture children)
