My First Gratitude Journal inspires children ages 3 to 8 to appreciate people in their lives and be thankful for the many blessings in life. The journal is designed to help them see what they have and take note of it. Showing gratitude helps them build stronger values, treat other people with more compassion and love and have a more positive, thankful attitude. The journal contains a mix of different types of pages for both drawing and writing. ***This book includes Fill-in-the-blank sections, blank title pages for doodling and bonus nature-theme floral and butterfly coloring pages scattered throughout the book, and additional **Surprise**butterfly coloring pages at the end. Writing and drawing helps children build stronger skills and combining the two activities helps children have a more profound understanding about the world around them. Encourage them to draw butterflies, rainbows or anything that helps strengthen their appreciation.
