Thank You To...

Adapted from our friends at Big Brothers Big Sisters of Massachusetts Bay

Work on adopting an attitude of gratitude with your Little by writing/creating some thank you cards together.

Materials Needed:

Blank cards (if you have them!), blank paper, crayons/markers/colored pencils

Instructions:

Create cards/thank you letters to send to someone of your choosing (e.g. a family member, teacher, lunch monitor, friend). Encourage your Little to choose someone who does not get a lot of recognition. Keep the focus on the act of showing caring for someone else, and don’t get too caught up in correct spelling or grammar!

Reflection Questions:

1. Who did you each write your letter to? Why did you choose them?

2. What makes this person a good friend/person?

3. What do you do to be a good friend/person?

4. Spend some time telling each other what you appreciate about the person you wrote to.
