THANKFUL - STORIES AND ACTIVITIES

This week, which includes Thanksgiving, is a great time to read, think and do things that focus on thankfulness. Being thankful helps one get through life's tough times, because one may easily call to mind all of the good things in life. Being grateful just makes you happy and being happy can help keep your mind and body healthy! Be thankful and share your gratitude this week. Enjoy a daily read aloud story, video, coloring sheet and activity featuring thankfulness.
