Ways To Give Thanks

Thanksgiving is quickly approaching and it's the time to pay it forward and give thanks for everything. What are you thankful for? Have you shown that you are thankful for what you have lately? If not, Thanksgiving is the time to do so. So, Wedding and Party Network has a few ideas on how you can give thanks.

  Donate to a local charity – A great way to get numerous donations is to host a charity event at your house. Your guests will love having a get together at your house, especially since it will be for a charitable cause.
• At your party, on your place cards, write words of thanks to your guests. You may not show it throughout the year that you're glad that they're in your life. So, writing it on their place card will show exactly how you feel.
• Donate your time – You can volunteer at a local soup kitchen or even the humane society, just to give back.
• If you're not planning a party for family or friends, call them. Give them well wishes and tell them that you're glad that they're in your life.
• Give back to the earth – Start recycling, host a recycling party or even plant a tree. Show the earth you are thankful for the environment.
• If you're being invited to another party during this season, don't forget to say thank you. Show your appreciation and even offer to help out.
• Read the Thanksgiving story – Sit down and share with your children the story of Thanksgiving
• Thanksgiving Poem – For your children, have them write a poem on Thanksgiving and what it means to them. This is a great time to spend time together.
• Memories – Share Thanksgiving memories with each other.
• Parade – Of course, there's a Thanksgiving Day parade. However, think about creating one for your neighborhood. How fun would that be?

Thanksgiving is an important holiday to give back, so share that with your family. It creates for making new memories and a great tradition that can be shared together every year.
