Veterans Day: Give A Hand

Hi friends,

Today is Veterans Day and we have a simple Veterans Day Give A Hand activity for you. All you need to do is print, trace, color, and pass out to a veteran you know. If you can’t print, do the activity anyway and write in the message. How awesome would it be to surprise a veteran you know with your child’s hand and a meal or meal card!? You could also gather some friends, do this activity together, and then drop off at your local VA office. This activity is so simple but offers a Thank you and extends a hand to all the veterans.

We’re thankful for the veterans in our lives and every veteran’s sacrifice and service.
