Thankfulness Cards













The last 2 years I have taken part in something called Thankful on Paper, where you write notes to people, telling them you are thankful for them and why. Recently, Hudson was saying that he couldn't wait for Valentine's Day so he could give cards to his friends... so I came up with the idea to do a version of Thankful on Paper for kids!

Yesterday I designed these little feather cards with a space for Hudson to write his friends' names and his own, and then a middle area where I could help him write why each friend is special to him. We did half of the cards last night, and this morning he was already asking if we could PLEASE do more cards tonight. I think it's so important to teach kids to be thankful at a young age- to appreciate people and things!

I thought it would be great to share these cards so you could do these with your kids as well (or do it yourself!) so I am sharing a free printable on my river & bridge blog today. Click here to get the link!
