It can be difficult to teach children to be grateful when we’re living in such an entitled world. We’re always working on ways to teach these concepts to our children, of course, while trying to emulate these qualities ourselves. These Thanksgiving books can be very helpful in teaching children to be thankful.
Everyone desires to raise grateful children….RIGHT?May I first suggest two books for parents? These books have been super helpful to me personally in teaching my kids gratitude in an entitled world. First, THIS book I loved this book because it really taught me the lifelong importance of telling my kids “NO”. Yes, NO is okay moms! I also really like this book by one of our favorite parenting experts whom we have featured many times, Amy McCready. She focuses on ridding your home of the entitlement trap and helping kids to develop their own responsible and grateful behaviors.

My son has always loved reading. He loves being read to even more.

The kids love to browse through them and we love to read through them as a family. This year, we are trying to read one book about gratitude or Thanksgiving each night. I feel like this provides an opportunity for reflection and helps to refocus the Christmas “gimmes” which often occur this month!
