Thanksgiving is just days away. I cannot believe how quickly time is flying. Lots going on and feeling frazzled, but wanted to share a glimpse into the kids’ table.
I’m setting the kids up with a mason jar holding their utensils and a striped paper straw. I adorned it with a little baker’s twine and craft paper leaves I found in Target’s dollar section. We aren’t name card people at my house, but you could easily add names and use it as a place card. I’m thinking of writing “thankful for you” on them.
I’m just using plane cream paper plates with cute Thanksgiving napkins to fun it up a bit. I figure the less dishes the better. The adults will get the fancy stuff.
Last year, I used white wrapping paper to cover the table so the kids could draw on it. I’ll have the crayons out again this year, but with a cute paper tablecloth I found at Target. It has word searches, turkeys to color and tic tac toe on it. Thought it would be a fun twist.
And that’s it. Very simple making more time to be together.

So clever! This will make them feel so special. I especially love the mason jar and the leaf. I think you definitely write on those leaves. Have a great Thanksgiving, Kim! I am thankful for you!
