Thanksgiving is a wonderful holiday that points us once again to the things that truly matter – God, family, and friends. It’s a fun time of year to explore the Pilgrims, traditions, and food with children. I hope these posts, printables, and books about Thanksgiving will give you lots of ideas as you prepare your Thanksgiving learning plans.
