96 A Thanksgiving Story of Squanto Shared From Dinalynn’s Home Library

Hey Friends,

HAPPY THANKSGIVING from The Language of Play!

There are so many holiday stories available to read to our children! They all have a different focus. Some silly, some academic, some religious... any focus you can think of!

When My kids were small, I wanted a story that helped them understand gratitude in the presence of struggle. I wanted a Christian book that showed God’s goodness. I found “Squanto and the Miracle of Thanksgiving.” This book became the story my family read every Thanksgiving! As they grew, our conversations grew!

I decided to share it with you here, with permission from the author. Maybe your kiddos will give you a little space to cook while listening. Conceptually, older kids will enjoy it, and the little ones will also enjoy the sounds of a story read, even as they don't understand the history.

Happy Listening and Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you and your kids enjoy it! To re-listen, you'll find the story about 7min, 15 seconds.

Always cheering you on!
