How To Make Every Day Thanksgiving Day!

Today is Thanksgiving in Canada, and as families gather to give thanks, we celebrate with them. We’d like to take a moment to wish our Canadian friends a very happy Thanksgiving. 

You see, we’re big on giving thanks and we talk a lot about gratitude here at Best Teacher Supply

We really believe that gratitude changes everything.

As November draws near, and with it the American Thanksgiving holiday, what will you do to bring that thankful attitude to your workplace? Keeping in mind that we are working on our attitudes, some effort will be involved to make systemic change.  Here are some ideas:

1. Start a Thankful Tree.

2. Write a thank you note to a student every day in November.

3. Write a thank you note to a co-worker every day in November.

4. Spend time (not just money) helping a cause you believe in.

5. Send a military personnel a care package.

6. Provide Thanksgiving dinner for a family who can’t provide their own.

7. Take to social media with posts of thankfulness.

8. Send Thanksgiving cards rather than Christmas cards this year.

9. Refuse to say “Turkey Day.” Instead refer to the holiday as Thanksgiving, only Thanksgiving.

10. Host a fundraiser.

11. Post quotes of gratitude on your  bulletin board.

12.  Put up a chalkboard or white board and invite students to share thoughts and photos of thankfulness.

Today, we pause and say Happy Thanksgiving to our Canadian friends.  Thank you to our customers. Thank you to those parents who trust us to help them.
