Thanksgiving - A Time to Remember

This one has been part of our family for many many years.  I love the CDs - one is an audio story and one is Thanksgiving music.

The Legend of Squanto

Focus on the Family Radio Theatre never disappoints!

Squanto and the Miracle of Thanksgiving

I'm sad - I can't find the audio version of this that we have!  

You can get the Kindle version for $1.99 right now!

We also like this Rabbit Ears version (only $2.77 on audible!)

Family Nights Tool Chest - Holidays

There are two family nights for Thanksgiving in this book.  These books are just awesome for an occasional special family night with younger kids.

THE BEST RESOURCE I'VE EVER USED

OVERLOAD WARNING:  Please remember - these resources have been collected over many years of parenting and family time.  If you are new to using resources to make holidays special, you have to PROMISE me you won't try to do all the things.  Using one of these resources would be a gentle start.  You don't use them all in one year.  You don't use them all at all!  And maybe the right thing for this year is to do nothing - to just be sure you sit down for a meal as often as you can with your kids and say something for which you are thankful during this season.  The point is to slow down - not to speed up in a frenzy of pumpkin-colored stressfulness.  The best gift you can give your kids is your presence.  That's the best resource of all.
