4. Memory Tablecloth: How fun would it be if you let everyone in the family write on the tablecloth, what they are thankful for! Then next year, you can pull it out and remember the memories of the past year and even get a little smile on your face, thinking about how much your family has changed. Check out our tablecloth.

 

 

5. A Secret Meal: Is there someone in your neighborhood that might be struggling? Leave all the fixings for a Thanksgiving meal on their doorstep a couple of nights before Thanksgiving. Your kids will love being secret agents and they will find out how fun it is to do service for someone else.

8. Christmas Lights: Our cute town has Festival of Lights and it starts on Thanksgiving night. If your town doesn’t have anything like this, I’m sure there is plenty of homes that will be all decked out. Check out the lights and get a little excited for Christmas!
