What are some Thanksgiving activities?
Aside from making crafts for Thanksgiving, there are some other activities that you can do as a family. You could volunteer at a food bank or soup kitchen to help feed those who are less fortunate. You could deliver food to families in your are that are struggling financially. Another idea is to visit a nursing home. So many of the elderly patients that live in nursing homes don’t have family who come to visit them, so they are often excited to see children. You could even take some of the fun crafts that you just created to share with them!
