Helpful Hint:

Most children learn more by doing than they do by hearing, or even reading for themselves. That is why it is important for you to help them begin putting what they learn about thankfulness in this Bible study into practice.

How?

By helping them make praise and worship to God a part of their daily lives!

A fun way to do that is by exposing your kids to special worship music created just for them. DVD's like Celebration Station's Sing & Praise make praise and worship fun. They get children excited about spending time singing praises to God, and prepare them for a lifetime of heartfelt worship.

Is it All About The Turkey?

Scripture Reading Time!

1 Thessalonians 5:18 (NLT)

Be thankful in all circumstances,
for this is God’s will
for you who belong to Christ Jesus.

Why we celebrate Thanksgiving.

Years ago the pilgrims were very thankful to God. He had led them out of a land where they were not allowed to praise Him like they wanted to. He gave them a new place to call home, where they could praise Him and worship Him with their whole heart.

They were very thankful to the Lord for this wonderful blessing!

The pilgrims set aside a special day each year to thank God for all of the wonderful blessings that He gave to them. We call that day Thanksgiving!

So, this year, while you are eating your turkey, stop and think about all of the things that God has done for you. Then, Thank Him!

How? Through praise and worship.

How Do You Praise and Worship God?

God is your friend. You can talk to Him just like other friends that you see every day. So, when God does nice things for you, you can tell Him thank you! And, you can tell Him that you love Him a whole lot! When you talk to God, He will hear you and smile!
We can also praise God by singing. He loves to hear you sing about how much He loves you, and how much you love Him. Plus, it is lots of fun!
God also likes for you to praise Him with dancing. Leaping and jumping for joy to music about God is a great way to show Him you are thankful!
Musical instruments are another way to praise God. He loves to hear you make music for Him!
