Have you wondered how to celebrate Thanksgiving during Morning Time? Do you want to learn more about the history and culture of Thanksgiving? Do you want to enjoy fun memory work and singing and read alouds, but you don’t know where to start?
Start here with my Thanksgiving Morning Time Plans and Resource Pack
I recently started putting together special morning time plans to enjoy with my children during the ~3 weeks leading up to Thanksgiving. I soon realized it might be something fun to share!
These plans are flexible and can be used however works best in your family. You can incorporate some or all into your morning time/circle time/morning basket plans. You could even use the memory work and reading lists as a mini unit study on Thanksgiving in history and culture.

Thanksgiving-themed Book List
Mentioned in the video: Thanksgiving Morning Time Plans and Resource Pack, Plimoth Plantation, George Washington’s Thanksgiving Proclamation, 1789 . Gina says, “Thinking of thanksgiving with the perspective of immigration gives us a number of topics for discussion.” You can find her conversation starters here. Also please note that these morning time plans were originally for email subscribers only, but are now available for purchase to anyone!

I would love these morning time plans, but have entered my email several times and I can’t find them in my inbox. Can you please help?
Hi Jill! I am so sorry you are having trouble with this! My first recommendation is to check your spam folder for the welcome email from humilityanddoxology @ gmail.com (the sender name should be Amy at HumilityandDoxology). It will give you the link and the password for the subscriber page. If that welcome email has not been lost in the spam folder (or the social or promotions tab), please send me a direct email to humilityanddoxology @ gmail.com . I can personally send you the link and password directly.
