Give thanks! Thanksgiving jar

I love the concept of giving thanks. And I think it's so vital that I teach my modern, technology loving kids to stop and think about what they're grateful for too. 

This sweet project is so quick to assemble that you'll have it done by Thanksgiving. You could substitute most of the materials. A shoebox would work and if you don't have a styrofoam ball then you can omit that.

Give thanks! Thanksgiving jar

This year we are grateful for so many things! For our families and friends...and for a new book contract! You'll be seeing even more of us in 2014!

 

Even though Thanksgiving isn't a holiday here in Australia, we think it's a good time to join our American friends and think about what we are thankful for! This project should come together fairly quickly and all of the components are flexible. Use what you can find! The head doesn't have to be a ball, you could use a piece of card instead. And if you don't have a glass jar for your notes, you could swap it for an ice cream tub or bowl. If you want a quicker project you can use a hot glue gun instead of waiting for the PVA to dry.

 

Thank YOU for visiting! We're thankful for you!
