Just in time for Thanksgiving - but made to be treasured all year long. 🍂
This Gratitude Journal is a gentle, printable keepsake designed to help young children reflect, draw, and write about the things that make their hearts feel full. Created for families who value rhythm, connection, and joyful early writing, this journal turns moments of thankfulness into a meaningful home practice.
Printable Cover Page (page 1): Print on cardstock for durability.
Two Inside Page Options:
Blank journal pages (pages 2–3) for open drawing or dictation
Prompted journal pages (pages 4–9) with gentle sentence starters
Parent & Caregiver Guide: Tips on assembling your journal and supporting your child’s writing, plus ideas for creating a gratitude ritual at home.
Print the cover on cardstock and the inside pages on regular paper.
Fold the pages in half, nest them inside the cover, and staple along the fold to create your own hand-bound gratitude booklet.
(Pages can be printed double-sided for a compact, eco-friendly journal.)
Each family can adapt the journal based on the child’s comfort and ability:
For pre-writers: Children draw their ideas, and caregivers write their words.
For early writers: Caregivers write in a highlighter, and children trace over the letters.
For developing writers: Try “sharing the pen” - you write the challenging words, and your child sounds out the rest.
✨ Every mark on the page is a seed of gratitude taking root.
Encourages mindfulness, gratitude, and connection through writing
Developmentally appropriate for ages 3–7
Simple, beautiful, and easy to print at home
Supports emotional growth and early literacy in a gentle, Waldorf-inspired way
✨ Make gratitude part of your family’s rhythm - during Thanksgiving and throughout the year.
