Thinking Thanksgiving is the only day to celebrate in November?
Here are some fun dates that you and your family can "celebrate"....
November is National Pomegranate Month. Enjoy eating and decorating with this seasonal fruit. Make simple place cards for a family meal by making a slit in the blossom end of each pomegranate. Have your child decorate a name card to put in the slit and put one at each person's place.
3rd- Sandwich Day. In honor of the inventor of the sandwich, John Montague, the Fourth Earl of Sandwich, try a new kind of sandwich today. Let kids select a new flavor of jelly or a new kind of cheese.
7th- International Tongue Twister Contest. How many times can you and your children say "toy boat" or "yellow yo-yo" before you start laughing?
21st- Family Volunteer Day. Even young children can practice helping others! See if there is a project you and your children can help with at your church, preschool or for a neighbor. Let little ones stack books, dust furniture or shine doorknobs.
26th- Thanksgiving Day. Begin the tradition of having everyone in the family name something they are thankful for. Teach young ones to say a simple prayer of thanks before going to bed. "Dear God, thank you for ______" and let them fill in the blank.
