**For our Family and Community Service Project we spent time at Maidee Smith Day Care. We spent time teaching and playing with the children. We also created a Thanksgiving Activity Box for them to take home and use as a family. We went to the daycare on four days from 9-10:30 in the mornings. We played, danced and read with the children in addition to the projects we brought for them. We taught the children about Thanksgiving by reading them books, and demonstrating how to use the felt board story they would take home with them, We taught the students what being thankful means, and did a turkey hand print craft. Every student took home his or her box full of activities on the last day we were there, after explained each activity. The goal of our visits was to bond with the children, teach them about Thanksgiving, and create a box full no-cost activities they could use at home with their family. The activity box contains activities that would be fun for family members of all ages, and could be used for family bonding. **
