This is my version of this Thanks Giving Gratitude Tree.
I used 2 brown construction papers to make the tree and I used her leaves templates which I printed them on construction paper. I laminated the leaves so I can also use them for a leaf matching activity later.
I will use wet erase sharpies to write on the laminated leaves.
Thank you Max and Mum Kids Activities for this great idea!
This is how I'll do this activity.
Everyday I will ask my son what is he thankful for and I will write it on a leaf and we will tape it to the tree. By the time Thanksgiving comes the tree should have plenty of leaves!
Variations:
- You can have your child draw a tree or paint one;
- You can use real brunches to make the tree;
- You can have your child cut the leaves and tree;
