Create a Holiday Tradition Your Family Will Treasure Forever
The Grateful Gumdrop Tree is a children's Christmas storybook and gumdrop tree decorating activity that teaches gratitude in the sweetest way.
A Sweet Holiday Tradition
Our tradition began at my grandmother Bertie Mae’s table: before a gumdrop went on the little tree, we shared one thing we were grateful for. It slowed December down and pulled us closer. The Grateful Gumdrop Tree is our way to pass that feeling on—a keepsake and story that turns “decorating the tree” into “growing a grateful heart.”

My girls and husband loved the story and the tree. Daddy did the same thing the dad in the story did! He ate a gumdrop before he said what he was grateful for! lol So much fun.
