Simple Thanksgiving Cards

Turkey Handprint
Our family lives across the country and we won't get to see them for Thanksgiving so B and I made some simple Thanksgiving cards to let them know we are thinking of them. I painted B's hand and he stamped the paper to make a handprint turkey.
Handprint PoemOn the inside I printed and glued this Thanksgiving Handprint Poem. B has been working on writing his name lately so I'm going to have him sign one card per day and of course I'll write a little something. I'm glad we started early so we can take our time with them and still get them in the mail early enough.

  3. What a lovely keepsake for the family. How special that B is going to write his own name.

  4. Definitely doing this! My parents live far away from us and we don't typically get to spend Thanksgiving with them. We'll be doing this to send off in the mail. Thanks so much for sharing! (The poem completes it!!)
