The Kokomo Post Kids: “What are you Thankful for?”
Through the eyes of our children, the holiday season can be some of the most magical times. They anticipate the food, gatherings and special traditions, but have such pure hearts for the meaning of the holidays.
Thanksgiving’s origin surrounds the historical meeting of Native Americans and New England settlers, but it will forever symbolize the concepts of gratitude, appreciation and thankfulness. We asked many local families to share what their kids claim to be the most thankful for this year. Their answers are displayed in the word art above and you can view their original answers below.
