I want to use the colloquial "Thank-you's" on a poster of children's art work as in "Here are some thank-you's from....." What is the best grammatical way to show this: thank-you's; thank you's; thank yous???

Thank you's all,
Chris

Chris, "thank-yous" without the apostrophe and with the hyphen is the proper way to write it.
