Gratitude Circle
A Garden tradition of thankfulness and togetherness
As we approach Thanksgiving, we take time to focus our energies on the most meaningful parts of our traditions—those that bring us together and strengthen our sense of community.
We invite families to join us for the last part of class for our Gratitude Circle, a sweet Garden tradition where children, families, and teachers gather to reflect and share the people, places, and moments for which we are thankful.
Through this simple and heartfelt gathering, we make space for gratitude, connection, and appreciation for the many ways we enrich one another’s lives.

Earth that gives
us all our food,
Sun that makes it
ripe and good;

We won’t forget
what you have done.
