Prep for Day One!
1. Gather materials:
Jack-o-Lantern or old pumpkin
New pumpkin
Tray or newspaper
2. Print The Decayed Pumpkin activity from Sid the Science Kid website.
3. Gather materials:
Shoe or cereal box
Construction paper of various colors (I used scraps)
Things to decorate your box: sequins, pom poms, stickers, etc.
Here is a picture of how our "Thanks" box turned out. I decided not to put a slit in the top of our box. We'll just lift the lid everyday when put a "thanks/blessing" card in the box.
4. Read 2-3 books from the reading list. I recommend Thanks for Thanksgiving by Julie Markes.
Prep for Day Two!
1. Print Body Part Cards on card stock.
2. For the Fruit of the Spirit activity read verse 1 John 4:19 "We love because he first loved us." Think of someone who loves you no matter what. You can make mistakes, and it doesn’t matter what you like like, they will still love you. God loves us too. No matter what. He even loves you more than your parents. He can help us love others the way we should.
3. Gather materials:
Glue gun
Poster board
Paper
Crayons
Sand paper
4. Use the glue gun to trace hearts of different sizes onto a poster board and let it dry.
5. Cut out hearts from sandpaper and tape them to a piece of poster board.
6. Read 2-3 books from the reading list. I recommend From Head to Toe by Eric Carle and Guess How Much I Love You by Sam Mc Bratney.
Prep for Day Three!
1. Gather materials:
Construction paper - I recommend brown for the letter I.
Glue
Feathers
Here is how our Letter I - Indian turned out. Feel free to edit him as you wish - I'm not an artist! Oh, and I couldn't find my feathers so I used some silk leaves I found at the dollar section in Target.
2. Gather material:
Tray
Paper
Kool-aid powder mix
Ice Cubes
3. Read 2-3 book from the reading list. I recommend This First Thanksgiving Day by Laura Krauss Melmed and This is the FEAST by Diane Z. Shore.
