Happy November friends!  I hope you had a great October and a great Halloween. This month is always a busy one for my personally and within my business.  Plus it’s a month of gratitude!

Do you practice gratitude?  Do you do it daily?  I have a daily gratitude practice that I really enjoy, but I like to take it up a notch in November.  Plus I like to get my family involved.

I was trying to get this fun and easy printable banner template to you before the month started, but because of my kids being on half term holiday it didn’t happen.

There’s never a bad time to start with gratitude though and even if we’re already a few days into the month why not give it a try.

Plus you can start the month off with several days of gratitude at once and really set the intention for the whole month.

To help bridge the gap between gratitude and parties I created this printable banner template. It will help you practice gratitude all month long while creating a fun party decoration.

I’d love for you to print it out and add a new gratitude pennant to it every day.

How to Practice Gratitude Monthly With a Gratitude Banner

It’s so easy to get your family or kids involved by designated a particular time of the day to talk about what you’re grateful for and add the pennant to the banner.

You could do it at dinner and have the banner somewhere in your dining room.  It will make a great addition to any Thanksgiving decor you have set up.

Or you could have each of your kids do their own and hang the banner in their rooms or on their door.

I added my banner to our entry table so it’s visible every day.  Another great place would be along a fall themed mantle.
