A free Thankful Tree printable that turns gratitude into something kids can hold, cut out and stick down. Print the tree, write what you are thankful for on the leaves, and watch the bare branches fill up through November.

What's included

  • 3-page PDF - instant download, US Letter (8.5 x 11 in).
  • Thankful Tree page - a bare tree with pumpkins at the base, ready for leaves.
  • Thankful Leaves page - 25 cut-out leaves in maple, oak and birch shapes, in red, orange, yellow and green.
  • Simple two-step instructions a child can follow with a little help.

How to use it

  1. Print the tree page and the leaves page on paper or cardstock.
  2. Write or draw something you are thankful for on each leaf.
  3. Cut the leaves out along the dashed lines.
  4. Glue them onto the branches, one at a time, across the month.

Who it is for

Ages 3 and up. Toddlers and preschoolers can draw on the leaves or say their answer while a grown-up writes it. Kindergarten and elementary children can write their own. Teachers use it as a Thanksgiving bulletin board, one tree per child, pinned together as a class gratitude display.

Ways to use the Thankful Tree

  • Thanksgiving table activity - one tree at each place setting, filled in before dinner.
  • Classroom bulletin board - a wall of finished trees under Our Thankful Trees.
  • A gratitude ritual - add one leaf a day from November 1st to Thanksgiving.
  • Scissor practice - cutting 25 leaves is good fine motor work for little hands.
  • Sensory bin add-on - tuck the cut leaves into a fall sensory bin and pull them out one by one.
