    My kids and I don't love Thanksgiving for the same reasons. I love it because of the family and food while my kids love it because of all the fun Thanksgiving crafts they get to make. Now being the kids of a blogger, they do more crafts than the average bear. They are still not quite sure what I do though, but they are always delighted when they pass by my computer and see a craft they have made. So over the years we done more than our fair share of Thanksgiving activities. In looking back through the archives, I was able to assemble this list of our favorite Thanksgiving Crafts for Kids. All of these crafts have been tested and approved by my kids so I feel confident in saying your kids will love them too! After you have had your fun crafting, try our Thanksgiving Dinner Casserole!
