Activities: balancing objects, counting, discuss sharing, how to set a table.

It's Thanksgiving Day and turkey knows he's in trouble. He offers creative suggestions to a traditional Thanksgiving dinner.
Activities: Discuss other countries that celebrate Thanksgiving and their food traditions, puppets, make disguises.
P is for Pilgrim
By: Helle Urban
This is a wonderful book for an older child. It walks you through the alphabet with interesting Thanksgiving facts from A to Z.
Activities: Map pilgrims route, geography, growing crops, Indian tribes near you.
My two favorite Thanksgiving books are "Albert's Thanksgiving" by Leslie Tryon and "Thanksgiving Day" by Anne Rockwell. My girls love the books!
