3. Donate

Donating helps your children understand how fortunate they are - and everything they have to be grateful for - whether it be a roof over their heads, clothing, toys or a loving family.

When your children outgrows their clothes or toys, encourage them to donate the items to families and children less fortunate. Involve your children in the process by researching the options available in your area, and if possible, take them with you to make the donation.

You could also hold a "gratitude garage sale" to raise funds. You can donate the money raised to a cause that you and children research together, or use the money to buy groceries for your local food bank.

4. Make a Gratitude Collage

If you're feeling crafty, try making a gratitude collage with your children. Grab some crayons, paper, glue, photos and magazine cut outs and have your children arrange items on a piece of paper. Talk about what items they chose and why they are grateful for them.

Another fun idea is to give your children a camera and have them take photos of everything they are thankful for. You can post the images in an online photo album or even create a gratitude photo book using their shots!

5. Create a Thankful Window

I found this activity on a few blogs and absolutely love it!

Pick up some window markers, and have your children write what they are grateful for on a window in your house. If you have a paned window, you could give each section to a different family member (or just section out areas with the markers).

You can wash off the writing when you're done, or have a thankful week where you add to it every day for a week.
