This November make a Thankful Pumpkin! Take a pumpkin you get from a craft store or a real pumpkin and write what you are thankful for on it every day. Soon, you'll have a pumpkin that whenever you are feeling down, you can count your blessings! Plus, this is a super cute centerpiece for Thanksgiving!

Another thing you can do when you are bored on Thanksgiving break is go to the dollar tree, or outside, and get some leaves. If you are using real leaves I recommend putting some tape on the side that you won't be directly adding Mod Podge to. Once you are done with that, add Mod Podge to one side of the leaf. Wait for it to dry (about 1 hour.) Add a coat on the back of the leaf and let it dry. You now have an adorable candle holder for this fall and Thanksgiving. You could even give them to people as gifts for coming to your house!

This is a super fun DIY to do when your Mom/Aunts/Grandma are making the Thanksgiving dinner. Take some apples and cut them into wedges. Use a cupcake tin and fill some slots with cupcake liners. Put as many liners in as you have toppings. In a mug or multiple cupcake liners, add caramel ice cream topping or melted caramel candies. Skewer your apple slices and let family members eat as they like. Some suggested toppings are: Coconut, Chocolate Chips, Marshmallows, Chopped Mixed Nuts, Toffee, and Reeses Pieces.
