It's nearing Thanksgiving! Time for the little ones to learn all about pilgrims, Native Americans and turkeys, right?
Books we read:
We read portions of Turkey, Pilgrims and Indian Corn.
We listened to real Turkey Calls and watched some videos of wild turkeys. We compared their lives to that of factory turkeys.
We made the Cranberry Bread recipe from Cranberry Thanksgiving. That was a lot of fun! I also made a Gluten-Free version so I could enjoy it, too. I also want to try the grain-free version. I'll blog pictures of the baking later on in their own post.
I printed off a few coloring pages:
There are, of course, many crafts ideas for Thanksgiving/turkeys. I am NOT fond of arts-and-crafts. When we actually do a crafty thing, the Little really enjoy it, though. Now that the Bigs are big, they can run crafts, and they enjoy it! Hooray!
