'Tis the season to be grateful.

As we're moving into the holiday season, we're challenging our #FamilyTrails community to foster the spirit of gratitude in their families as they spend quality time with their loved ones.

Our theme for November is "Togetherness" and the hashtag is #FT_Togetherness. Read on for more details on how to participate.

Whether you're reading together at bedtime, cooking a meal, wondering aloud on the hiking trail, or visiting a local park, gather your family and make time to learn together through adventure. Then share your stories with us on Instagram by using #FT_Togetherness.

Because we have been happily overwhelmed with the quality of submissions, we now pick four participants each month to receive FamilyTrails swag. We will announce one recipient per week during the theme period, and we will feature a round up on our blog at the end of the month.

The most IMPORTANT part: in order to be considered to win, you must follow the new instructions written below.

Instructions:

1.) Post your theme photo from a public account between Tuesday, November 1st and 11:59pm EST on Tuesday, November 22nd 2016. There is no limit to the number of entries each account can share and tag.

2.) Use #FT_Togetherness and #FamilyTrails in your original caption and tag @FamilyTrails in the photo.

3.) In your caption, include a few sentences explaining how your photo relates to the theme.

You must follow the above rules to qualify for the prize. Swag recipients will be chosen based on the post's adherence to the aforementioned rules, image quality, caption quality, and overall creativity.

November's theme of "Togetherness" is inspired by Parent and Child Together (PACT) Time®, an NCFL initiative. To learn more about PACT Time, check out FamilyTrails.com/page/pact-time.
