Dora's Thanksgiving Centerpiece

This Thanksgiving, you can make your family's thoughts of gratitude the center of attention with the help of Dora! Use our printables to create this 3D tree, place it at the center of your table, and have everyone help personalize it by writing what they are thankful for on the printable leaves.

Explore with Dora every day on Nick & Nick Jr.

Share & Care skills are part of social-emotional learning and include: building self-esteem, cooperating, empathizing with others, and identifying feelings.

Create with us skills involve self-expression, experimentation, and imagination through visual arts (like painting and sculpting), dramatic play, cooking, and dance.

You'll need to allow extra time for glue or paint to dry.

Ages: 4-6
