5 Best Thanksgiving Books for Children
Happy Thursday, friends! Thanksgiving is only a few Thursdays away, so I wanted to share this post with you early in case you are looking for great stories to teach your children about Thanksgiving. I’d like to introduce you to my 5 Best Thanksgiving Books for Children!
Sweet Bear wants to throw a feast for his friends to let them know how thankful he is for them – but he doesn’t have enough food! How will he solve this dilemma?
When choosing a Thanksgiving book, I look for stories that teach our kids about coming together with loved ones to give thanks for all the things we have. This story teaches children not just to understand, but to go beyond and show thanksgiving to others.
While this story isn’t exactly Thanksgiving, it is a beautifully illustrated story of America’s favorite Thanksgiving Day Parade.
This sweet story teaches children how to be thankful for the big things and the small things in life. Again, beautiful illustrations.
Join the Pilgrims on their Atlantic voyage, and pull up a chair at the first Thanksgiving feast in this sweet biographical tale.
