Print out your tree template and your leaves. Trace onto cardstock paper and cut out. You can also color these or freehand these. I used our leaf template and in my print screen window had it scaled to 50%. You can adapt this to any size you want.
Have kids write out what they're most thankful for. Be sure to write exactly what they say even if it seems small or silly. That's what makes this such a great keepsake!
Glue your tree and the leaves ont othe paper with a glue stick. Let kids place the leaves where they want them to be 'falling'.
Add a message on the paper indicating that it's a thankful tree, the year, or the child's name.
