We could start by teaching them about how people used to live before they had what we have now.

Okay, any other advice?

I don’t think it would be as effective to directly tell the kids to be grateful for what they have.  If they’re complaining, it might lead to a conversation about what you have and other people have, and then they’ll only complain more.  Do you have some negative examples of stuff they don’t have now?
