i love gratitude crafts! even if not crafty you can print 8.5×11 tree from the ‘net. Use colorful pens, markers, pencils and preserve in a dollar store frame that you display every yr.

did something similar for my son’s adoption party. everyone signed a leaf or wrote a message along the many branches and trunk . would be suitable to a christening, wedding, graduation too.

We started a thankful tree last week too! Her tree looks much more creative then mine but I love this new family tradition!

My kids & I did a thankful tree but took a differnt, more frugal approach.
We went out on a nature walk & picked up all kinds of different fall leaves. We also found a nice big branch to hold 30 leaves. Each day we write what we’re thankful for on a leaf & then I glue the leaf to the branch. The kids LOVE it & it didn’t cost us a dime!

I love the tree. Our church has one up and my little girl loved putting up her thankful note.
