With Gratitude and Happiness

If you had a chance to read this week's newsletter you might recall the discussion we had about the connection between gratitude and happiness. Turns out, people who regularly take time out to acknowledge the things they are grateful for are happier and healthier! The week before Thanksgiving seemed like the right time to build "being grateful" into our mindfulness practice.  Here is the link to the music video we watched.  ...AND learned some signs to go along!  
PLEASE NOTE THERE IS SOMETIMES AN ADD BEFORE THE VIDEO IF YOU ARE VIEWING WITH YOUR KINDERGARTNER!

And now for a look through our week... you can see a finished weaving taken off the [cardboard] loom, a look at Melissa's Candle Day (all about her love for rainbows), designing paper quilt squares and story writing with some traditional Native American picture symbols.
