Thanksgiving isn’t easy for everyone. Holidays can bring up complicated feelings, family tensions, or trauma. Perhaps you aren't able to provide the meal or setting you hoped you would be able to this year. Maybe you're grieving someone missing at the table.

If this season feels heavy, we want you to know your feelings matter, and support is available. We're here to help you navigate whatever this time brings

🦃 Thanksgiving can be wonderful, and overwhelming! Big gatherings, new foods, changes in routine… it’s a lot for kids (and adults!). Here are a few gentle tips to help the day go more smoothly:

Share the plan: Let kids know what to expect, where you’re going, who will be there, and when things happen. Predictability helps everyone feel safer.

✨ Expect meltdowns: Holiday emotions run high. A tough moment doesn’t mean anything is wrong, it just means your child is human.

✨ Build in breaks: Go on a walk to a park, take a quiet moment with a cuddle and a book - small resets go a long way.

✨ Practice gratitude, not perfection
Gratitude doesn’t require a picture-perfect day. Notice small moments of connection, kindness, or silliness.

✨ Remember: there’s no “perfect” holiday
Real holidays are messy and real families feel big feelings. Do what works for your family.
