Giving Thanks Jar Tradition
Jamie Prickett shares her family tradition and how they give thanks each year at the dinner table! A great Thanksgiving craft.

Materials Needed:

Instructions:
"Decorate a container to look like a turkey (You can make this Turkey Jar).

Place 2 uncooked beans on each place setting. Insted of saying grace, you pass the turkey around the table and everyone says 2 things they are thankful for and placed the beans in the turkey. Pass to the next person and so on around the table.

My son's First grade teacher sent this home with him. Only their turkey was a photocopy that they cut and glued to make the dish. It has been a tradition with my family ever since."
