make Thanksgiving Tags
A printable Fall tag to say thank you for any occasion, however, these would be perfect for Thanksgiving!
you'll need Materials
- Craft tray
- Printout (we did ours on cardstock)
- Pencil crayons, markers, paint- whatever medium you would like!
- Colourful paper (for backing)
- Scissors
- Glue stick
- Hole punch
- Beads (optional)
- Cord
We always find a smock helpful too:
Directions
- Print out the provided tags on cardstock.
- Don your smock. We went with painting our leaves, but you could colour them in with crayons, pencil crayons, markers- whatever you like! Our son drew the leaves for you! Allow to dry.
- Cut out your tags.
- Glue the back of the tags and adhere them to your bright backing papers.
- We then cut out the tags again, creating a border with the bright paper. Punch a hole on the circle in the corner of the tag.
- Write your name on the provided line.
- Attach your tags to your gifts with your cord. We also added a bead as an accent.
Purpose
- Expressing gratitude
- Providing real-life opportunities for writing one’s name
- Developing one’s fine motor skills (writing, cutting, painting etc.)
Safety Notes
- We suggest that you wear a smock and use a craft tray to protect your clothing and surfaces.
- Use scissors with care and adult supervision.
- Cord, yarn etc. can be a strangulation hazard, therefore be sure to use with direct supervision and for its intended purpose.
- Beads can be a choking hazard therefore be sure to keep them out of the reach of children ages 0-3 years of age or those that tend to put things into their mouths.
