Thankful Tree

Here is a great tradition to start with your family for Thanksgiving.  Here is what you need to get started:

  • flower pot
  • small tree branch
  • pebbles, rocks or marbles
  • card stock or colored paper
  • hole punch
  • twine or string
  • clear holiday lights, optional

To make the tree, insert a branch in a flowerpot filled with pebbles, rocks, or marbles.  Cut leaf shapes from card stock or colored paper, use a hole punch to make a hole in each, and attach a loop of twine or string.  At your gathering, have guests jot down a note of thanks on a leaf and hang it from the tree.
