Gratitude Activities for Kids

It’s always a nice idea to help children to think about what they’re grateful for. We’ve tied our gratitude activities into Valentine’s Day to go with the whole love theme – but you can do this anytime!

From loving the cat to loving spending time with grandma, to even loving a big piece of chocolate cake, it’s nice for kids to take time to think about the things in life that they love and are grateful for.

What you need to make a paper love heart tree

bunch of twigs, red and whit dotty paper and pair of scissors on a grey table
  • Vase or even a clean empty jam jar will do.
  • Twigs – you could team this activity up with a nature walk first to gather some twigs and stick.
  • A4 sheet of pretty paper
  • Scissors
  • Hole punch
  • Pen or pencil for writing gratitudes

How to make a paper love heart gratitude tree

  • First, cut the A4 paper into strips

  • Then fold the little paper squares into halves.

  • Cut a heart shape from the folded square – just cut half a heart and when opened it will be a full heart.

  • Just repeat the above steps and make as many paper love hearts as you like!
  • Then get the kids to write their little gratitudes on the back of the love hearts.

  • Finally – using the hole punch – punch holes in the hearts ready to hang on the twigs. You should be able to just hang these on but you may need to thread them with ribbon or string if you can’t.
