Thanksgiving is just around the corner! How did that happen?! I always like to do special activities around Thanksgiving and although we have started our Thanks & Giving Tree, I’m itching to do more! I’m so excited about this year because both Asa and Lydia are just a little more aware of what’s going on.
As I was thinking and planning what we’re going to do this year, I looked through all our old Thanksgiving posts–and was impressed! (Heh.) I think they are worth sharing again! So, here you go, our favorite Thanksgiving activities, ideas and crafts!
1. Clothespin Turkeys 2.Leaf Letter Wreaths 3. Oreo Turkeys 4. Joyful Jar 5. A Crafty Canned Food Drive 6. Best Thanksgiving Book
What’s your favorite Thanksgiving activity?

Gettin’ Crafty on Hump Day
Cute ideas! Will def. use the can idea for our Thanksgiving food baskets!
Decorating the cans is still one of my fave ideas!! Thanks for the comment. 🙂
Thanks for all of the links! I love finding cute projects to make with my son.
Awesome ideas, thank you! I’m visiting from NNK, I’d love to have you visit me too!
Those clothespin turkeys are absolutely adorable! I am going to make some with the kids and make them into napkin rings somehow. That will be a fun craft when the kids are off school this Friday for conferences.
Oooh, great idea! They could be place/name cards, too!
Thanks so much for linking these ideas up to gettin’ crafty on hump day! 🙂
Amanda,
Oooo, makes me miss my kids as “littles”. I wonder what they’d do if I pulled out the ol’ Barney Box. Darling ideas 🙂
Aw, I think they’d like to do anything with you, Robin! 🙂
What a simple and inspiring idea your Jesus Loves You cans are! I only wish I had been doing that all along. Will start at the next can drive. Thanks for the wonderful idea, which I posted on my new blog to keep the message alive.
Thanks so much for the link! I know, I love that idea! I just love imagining someone opening up their cupboard to see that little message!
