New This Month
“It isn’t what you have in your pocket that makes you thankful,
but what you have in your heart.”

This month we will focus on GRATITUDE. Just like empathy, GRATITUDE is a learned trait and you can help your children learn this important trait by modeling gratitude and putting a gratitude practice in place in your home. November is the perfect time to start a gratitude practice (or dust off the old practices that have gone by the wayside). Check out the posts below for ideas of how to teach your children about gratitude and gratitude practices you can put into place this month and beyond.
New on the site this month you will find:
- Marking Gratitude with Kids
- Gratitude Activities for Kids
- Books for Gratitude and Thanksgiving
- Service Project Ideas for the month of November
- Recycled Art Program
- Printable Book List–The Kids in Service booklist is FREE and you can print it out or download it to your phone so that you can take it with you to the local bookstore or library. The list is updated monthly, and organized by category, with all of the book recommendations from the site.
We are looking forward to a month of gratitude with you and your family!
