‘Tis the Season to Be Grateful
When stores begin staging their Christmas decorations, you know it’s time to start having conversations about being grateful! There are so many reasons to be grateful for, and they don’t all involve something materialistic. We can be fortunate to have a roof over our head, warmth in our homes, love from our family, food on the table. We can be lucky to be together, to be seen and appreciated, to have friends. We’ve handpicked a few books to talk about all of the things that you can be grateful for. We love how diverse the characters are in this selection.
As a kindergarten teacher, Marie read the American Indian morning prayer Gracias te damos to celebrate Mother Earth, and all that it gives us. Gracias shows dozens of reasons to be grateful from nature to friendship, shelter, food and so much more. Última parada de la calle Market is about giving back as a form of being grateful. La nevera de Maddi is about understanding what we have that others don’t have. These books will make great additions to classrooms, and will be wonderful books to read at home!
We wish you lots of meaningful conversations this season, - Diego and Marie
