Thanksgiving Cards For Kids

Thanksgiving crafts are some of our favorites. Fall and Thanksgiving are a time to reflect on the blessings and let your family and friends know how much they mean to you.

Sending Thanksgiving cards is a great way for your kids to not only share their love but showcase their artwork too. I know there are many grandparents and loved ones that would be tickled pink to open up a beautiful pop-up turkey card in the mail.

Adding a simple note letting them know that someone is thinking of them can be worth so much. Especially during the holidays when times can be lonely.

Thanksgiving Craft

Thanksgiving is one of those times of the year when people love to craft. Whether it's to create a decoration like our Thanks Wreath or a Cinnamon Stick Candle Holder. People are craving time to unwind, sit down with friends or family, and work with their hands to create something.

Thanksgiving seems like the perfect time as you reflect on the year and the people you are grateful for. We love the idea of creating a fun pop-up card to hand to your Thanksgiving day host or to send in the mail. Heck, even handing them to your neighbors is a fun idea.

Grabbing this thanksgiving printable turkey and a few supplies and you will be on your way to making someone's day (or season.)
