Thankful Activity
Step 1
Paint your wooden sign pieces from the Autumn Wood Signs Kit. Keep the largest pumpkin a solid color for later steps.
Step 2
Take your cardboard box and cut out a hole on one side
Step 3
Cover your cardboard box with craft paper.
Step 4
Decorate your box however you’d like. We chose to paint a Fall themed plaid pattern.
Step 5
Glue your Thankful wood sign and a wood pumpkin atop your box. Feel free to add any sticker gems to add some more pizazz
Step 6
Print out this printable and cut out one card for each guest at your table. Have each guest fill out a card before Thanksgiving dinner and place in the box. After dinner take turns reading each card guessing who wrote which card.
Wooden Pumpkin Menu
Step 1
Take your blank pumpkin and write down the Thanksgiving dinner menu.
Step 2
Take your last wooden pumpkin and glue it side by side to your pumpkin menu. This helps them stand upright on the Thanksgiving tabke.
Leaf Place Cards
Step 1
Take your felt or construction paper and cut out a leaf shape. Cut out enough for each table setting
Step 2
Write each guests name on a leaf.
Step 3
Cut a fuzzy stick slightly longer than the length of your felt leaf and glue on the back of your felt leaf.
Step 4
Decorate each felt leaf with any extra sticky gems for a personalized touch.
That’s it! Place your finished crafts on the Thanksgiving dinner table for some extra decoration and crafty fun this turkey day.
