FHE: Gratitude

With Thanksgiving coming up, we thought it appropriate to talk about gratitude.

We talked about how being grateful makes us happy because we enjoy the things we have while we have them, rather than wishing for things we don't have and being sad about it.

We all traced our hand and colored it to look like a turkey.  Then we took turns saying 5 things we were grateful for and mom & dad helped everyone write them on each finger of their turkey.

My 4-year old absolutely loved this.  He wanted to do another thing for the body.  The next morning he even woke up and said he wanted to make another hand-turkey picture, but use BOTH hands and list things he was grateful for for both hands.
