Teaching gratitude to 4.5 yo boy

Question

I’m struggling to teach my 4.5 year old son gratefulness. We don’t have strong behavior issues, but he will often say things like “Why doesn’t this water have ice?” Or “Why is her piece bigger than mine?” Or “When can we go home? I’m bored.”
He’s usually not accompanying these statements with poor behavior, but they definitely come off rude, ungrateful, and entitled. How can I begin teaching him the art of being grateful for what you get?
