We had a devotional last night to prepare for Thanksgiving. It went really well, so I thought I'd post it for those of you who are interested in such things...

1. Explain thankfulness.
2. Read Psalm 100
3. Memorize the second half of verse 4 ("give thanks to Him and praise His name")
4. Ask, discuss and write down a list of things that we are grateful for.
5. Draw and cut out some of those things to hang on "Thanksgiving Tree". We collected several branches from the park and stuck them in a plant pot to make our "tree". Mike and I drew the pictures and the kids cut them out. See our tree above.
6. Pray together thanking God for what he has given us.
