There so many opportunities during this season to teach children about being thankful. It's important to teach children about having an awareness that all things come from God...they are gifts! Get children to name as many as they can. Maybe they have never thought about our breath or sight as a daily gift. It is so important to also teach them about the joy in helping others, then give them a mission opportuntiy to live out helping someone in need. Learning at an early age to have a "Thankful Heart" will begin to mold them into thankful adults. ---Now that the Thanksgiving holiday is over...continuing to celebrate God's gifts with children will help them learn to count blessing all year!
