"Thanks"giving Tree

Okay so the picture is not the best. But it is the best I could get given that the wall is brown and so was our tree trunk.

This year I thought it would be good for the kids to write down what they are thankful for. So we traced our hands and after reading the book the "Giving Tree" we wrote on our hands what we were thankful for and than attached them to the tree trunk as leaves.
