I created this Thanksgiving Jar Printable as a challenge and an opportunity to exercise gratitude daily, individually, and/or as a family. This free printable can be used year-round as a reminder to be thankful in all circumstances because this is the will of God for us.
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, and give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
The word thanksgiving in Hebrew – Hoda’ah (Todah for thanks) also means confession. Thanksgiving is when we confess to God and others how grateful we are for God’s goodness and faithfulness in our lives.

What is The Thanksgiving Jar?
The Thanksgiving Jar is a 30 Days of Gratitude Challenge that will help you and your family to focus your mind and heart on being thankful. This is a set of 30 cards containing 30 Bible verses about gratitude and thanksgiving with adaily prayer prompty.
How to assemble your Thanksgiving Jar.
First, sign up to receive the free printable and make sure you have:
-
- Cardstock paper or regular paper to print the downloadable file.
- Scissors to cut the cards and the label.
- A large Mason jar
- Glue to glue the label to the jar
If you want to create a booklet instead, you will need a stapler to staple it all together. I created a second label for this purpose as well.
This printable also contains two bonus gratitude Bible verse posters you can use to decorate the wall or print in a smaller size for Bible journaling.
How to use the Thanksgiving Jar.
There are many ways to use The Thanksgiving Jar. You can use this printable for daily prayer and meditation, as journaling prompts, and Bible study starters.
The Thanksgiving Jar is also an excellent resource for before and relatives on Thanksgiving Day. You can gather the family before or after dinner and pass the cards around asking each person to read one card and respond to the prompt aloud. Then add it to the jar.
Another possibility is to also, on Thanksgiving Day, pass blank pieces of paperpapernd the table, asking each person to take and read one card as everyone writes down their responses.
These are amazing opportunities to share collectively how thankful we are for God’s blessings in our lives.

I would love to use the Thanksgiving jar in my classroom. I teach at a Christian school. How do I get it to download?
We loved using this gratitude jar with the kids. I used to do a big tree and the kids would make tons of coffee filter tiedye leaves to put on it. Each day we would write down something we were thankful for and place a new leaf on the tree. Somehow we got out of the habit and lost the gratitude part of the holiday. This really helped us to get back into the holiday and celebrate the right way.
I’m so happy to hear that, Natasha!!
I really like this idea, not only for thanksgiving, but for the whole year.
Yes! You can use it year-round. 🙂
Love this!
I love this idea to help us remember all that we are thankful for.
This is a great idea that I definitely want to incorporate.
This is so timely even after Thanksgiving to realign our hearts and minds to the truth of Gods goodness. Thank you!
Love this!!
Great resources. Thank you!
What a wonderful idea, I love this!
What a neat idea! I’ve done the year-long gratitude jar, but never thought of doing one just for November!
This is an amazing idea for people to realize how grateful they are.
I love this idea!! Saving so hopefully I can use it next year!
What a neat idea!
I love this idea. We don’t have thanksgiving in the UK but we are always looking for ways to incorporate more gratitiude in our lives and daily walk. We have been taking a few weeks the last few Novembers to concentrate on gratitude. This is on my list for 2023
I like the idea of being intentional about gratitude.
Merry Christmas to all!
Love this!
What a wonderful idea for a Thanksgiving Day jar.

These will be a wonderful resource for next Thanksgiving so I am bookmarking this to come back to . Thank you
Brittany, you can use the Thanksgiving Jar year-round, too! 🙂
what an awesome resource!! and so pretty too
Expressing gratitude has always helped to feel just a little better during difficult days. It’s so simple, yet not always easy (but always helps!) Thanks for the great idea here!
I’ve been thinking of doing this next year as a family and having a gratitude jar on the table so that we can always be adding to it!
