Congrats to the cutest Sherry and Kathy on being the winners of my Favorite Things Giveaway! Winners have been contacted and will be receiving all their fun things within the next few weeks. Thank you so, so much for everyone who entered. Stay tuned for more fun giveaways in the future! My Mom is seriously the cutest, most creative lady I know. If you've followed this blog for any amount of time you probably already know that. She is currently serving as an Activity Day Leader in her ward and of course rocking it. She just had the most adorable Manners Matter Feast and I'm so thrilled she's letting me share all the details. This doesn't just have to be for Activity Days either, my older sister is the Primary President in her ward and was going to do a few of these things with her Primary, it would also make a perfect and easy family night leading up to Thanksgiving! She started her Manners Matter Feast with a story to introduce the topic. We couldn't find one we liked and that fit the theme and purpose of the activity so I made one up! You can download the story at the bottom of THIS post. She blew up the turkey we were using and used colored paper for the different feathers, and added the feathers along with telling the story. The story is all about a turkey named Maggie that finds out how manners make life more colorful. She gets a new colored feather every time she masters a manner. To go along with the story I made a worksheet that they could hang in their room to remember what manners they should be working on. Here's one I made for an example. They could color the feathers the different colors they liked and add the specific manners they need to work on, on each feather. Hopefully reminding them that manners really do matter! My mom said this was a huge hit and the girls loved working on this page. My mom found the cutest, colorful feather suckers that fit perfectly in her little turkey stand. I made a tag to remind them of the story when they took home their little treat. You can find the free download for these cute little tags at the end of this post! Next came learning some table manners. She found the cute place mats and Manners Matter packet at Dating Divas! She also found the cute little turkey treat holders on Etsy from Jessicas Prints HERE! She filled these cute turkeys with a fun fall mix of marshmallows, candy corn, M&M's, Honey Nut Cheerios, pretzels, and Swedish Fish. She went over some Table Manners Do's and Don'ts to prep the girls for their feast ahead. She found this sheet from a church idea book that she has had for years. If you know where it came from please let me know so I can give credit where credit is due! My mom even made the cutest paper turkey full of popcorn! She told them she had been working in the kitchen and cooking it all morning! ;) Then to setting the table! My mom already had it set as pictured above. She then taught the girls how to set the table-perfect for Thanksgiving Day prep! Then came eating! She had mini pudding cups, turkey slices, rolls, veggies, fruit, chocolate covered popcorn, and chocolate rice krispy treats with a white chocolate drizzle. We tried to stick with either brown or colorful foods to go along with the theme! We can't quit this super easy and addicting white chocolate popcorn! I tossed in some regular M&M's to add that pop of color! Find the recipe HERE! The girls were told to use their manners while having their feast. The girls absolutely loved it and learned so much about manners. At the end of the activity they passed out the feather suckers (find more about those HERE) and gave back the worksheets they had done earlier.
