I saw this Thankful Tree on Pinterest earlier this year. This is our version:
I put it on the wall next to the landing halfway up our staircase. We put leaves on it every night on the way upstairs for our bedtime routine. I used faux bois wrapping paper from Target's dollar section for the tree trunk and branches. The leaves are mostly silk leaves I've picked up here and there over the years. I write what we are each thankful for on slips of paper and tape it to the leaves. The kids love sticking the leaves to the tree every night. Last year I had the kids write down something they were thankful for every night, but it took forever to get them to do it. This goes much quicker...
We even put a little owl in our tree...
