Free printables...DIY Thankful Jars

Thankful jars!
With Thanksgiving quickly approaching, I wanted to give yall a great activity for your family. My friend and I came up with this idea as a Fun Friday activity with our 3rd graders' class, and it was a lot of fun and hopefully somewhat meaningful. The best part? I am giving you these brand new, super cute designs for free!

We got super lucky that my mother-in-law had several old mason jars we could use. I also had been saving jars for some reason this past year, I guess thinking I'd need them for something like this, so this project turned out to be almost free.

Instructions:
1) Get a mason jar, top with the round sticker
2) Attach the rectangle "Thankful Jar" sticker on the outside
3) Print the "I'm thankful for" cards on either cardstock or plain paper. 
4) Have everyone in your family fill out as many as they like. Put them in the jar and then when you sit down to Thanksgiving dinner, you can pull all the cards out and read them. It gives you a head start on discussing all the many, many things we have to grateful for!
