\"Thankfulness<\/figure>

November means the official beginning of the holiday season, with Thanksgiving being\u00a0our first major national holiday of the fall. This is the perfect time of year to sit down\u00a0with your preschooler and help them remember all of the things to be thankful for in this\u00a0special time of year. Here are three ways you can start practicing thankfulness with your\u00a0preschooler today!<\/p>\n

Begin with\u00a0Reflection<\/h3>\n

The first step to thankfulness is to remember all of the positive things in your life that\u00a0have made you happy over the past year. Help your preschooler remember some of the\u00a0great moments they\u2019ve had lately, and who specifically made that happen for them.\u00a0Encourage your young one to look past material happiness such as toys or gifts and\u00a0instead think of the people and experiences that he or she can be thankful for. If your\u00a0child is having trouble remembering, help guide them through the process.<\/p>\n

Make a Journal<\/h3>\n

Journaling can be a great way to record memories, as well as important events that impact\u00a0your child\u2019s life. Using a small notebook, encourage your preschooler to write about their\u00a0experiences and what they are personally thankful for. Since many preschoolers don\u2019t\u00a0have a great grasp of writing just yet, play with the idea of an art journal, where they\u00a0draw pictures of their happy moments and memories from the past year. As an added\u00a0bonus, you can encourage your child to keep up with their \u201cThankfulness Journal\u201d year-round, so you can have a guide to reference next year when reflecting on positive\u00a0memories.<\/p>\n

Write a Letter<\/h3>\n

If your preschooler feels thankful for the actions of someone, let them know about it!\u00a0Help your child to craft a quick letter or postcard to a family member, friend, or teacher\u00a0who had a great impact on his or her life this year. You and your child can write it out\u00a0together or type it up on the computer, but be sure your kiddo includes a personal touch,\u00a0such as a hand-drawn picture to give thanks to that special someone in their life!\u00a0Living thankfully is an important step in a child\u2019s growth. Start encouraging thankfulness\u00a0this November, and going forward you can cultivate it year-round.<\/p>\n
