19 2010 thanksgiving books 2010 here are some books for you to consider for thanksgiving i know an old lady who swallowed a pie by alison jackson this story is very funny and is sure to get giggles out of your children this is a fun thanksgiving read the pilgrims thanksgiving from a to z by laura crawford this book is full of infomration about thanksgiving it isn t just a picture book with p is for pilgrim it has the letter what it stands for then at least a full paragraph elaborating on the item so you could focus on the letters with your little ones young toddlers pretoddlers and babies but also go into much more historical detail with your older children toddlers preschoolers an children i really like this book thanksgiving day by anne rockwell this is about chilren recounting what they learned about thanksgiving day it has good information while still being interesting thanksgiving mice by bethany roberts a group of mice put on a play about the first thanksgiving the thanksgiving surprise by peggy archer two brothers go looking for a turkey to eat on thanksgiving they end up coming home with a giant pumpkin instead this is a fun story i m a turkey by jim arnosky this is a fun turkey book to read i would get this from the library but probably not buy it a plump and perky turkey by teresa bateman raegan mentioned this last year but it is so good it must be mentioned again this is our favorite turkey book this year and really is worth it to own this one i like it so much i found myself a little taken aback when the librarian didn t read this for story time to the kindergarteners today she read a different turkey book then i had to laugh at myself so it is a good one posted by valerie plowman at 11 54 am 0 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels book lists thanksgiving turkey thursday november 18 2010 blast from the past no bake turkey cookies plus spinoff we recently made raegan s no bake turkey cookies and of course the kids loved them a whole lot what s not to love sugar sugar sugar we also recently went to story time at the library where they made something similar i thought that was a great way to lessen the sugar impact if desired yes i was a weird mom squeezing in there to get a picture of the turkey with my phone all for you people all for you this cookie is one half of an oreo candy corn and a hershey s kiss you could do a malt ball instead of the kiss the kiss is stuck on using white frosting when we made our turkey cookies i had some green frosting already made so we used that instead kids don t care posted by valerie plowman at 4 27 pm 1 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels blast from past turkey monday november 15 2010 paper plate turkey first of all sorry for the terribly small picture i took this with my phone at brayden s school i helped in brayden s class this month as they made these cute turkey plates if i remember when he brings it home this year i will take a picture and add it to this post so there will be a better picture for future reference this is a fun thanksgiving decoration it is great for counting colors fine motor an art project and following a sequence of directions supplies two white paper plates six long strips of paper red orange yellow green blue purple six short strips of paper red orange yellow green blue purple one short orange strip of paper for the feet one printed turkey head try this one http kidsdomain com craft cegif pum tur3 head gif crayons glue stick scissors stapler optional method have the child color the bottom of each plate brown this is the side that you do not eat from have the child color and cut out the turkey head have the child cut the strips of paper so the ends resemble feathers most of the kindergartners cut the ends like at an angle have the child cut out the orange strip to look like feet have the child glue the turkey head on the brown side of one of the plates have the child glue the feathers on the white side of the other plate glue the tall feathers in the middle and short feathers on the sides have the child glue the feet on the bottom of the same plate staple or glue the two plates together viola you have a turkey tip if you want this to be an activity where your child follows a sequence of directions it is a good idea for you to make one ahead of time then give the instructions and set your turkey out for the child to look at as an example i would say this is most appropriate for children 4 and older posted by valerie

are our turkey ideas from last year involving young children on thanksgiving day turkey handprint place cards handprint turkey turkey apple feather turkey no bake turkey cookies posted by valerie plowman at 11 07 am 1 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels round up turkey tuesday november 24 2009 involving young children on thanksgiving day today my toddler asked me what thanksgiving is and i tried to explain in her terms why we celebrate thanksgiving and what being thankful means sure we ve read books done plenty of turkey crafts and talked about being thankful i ve tried to help her learn to be grateful to see outside her own little world which is tough for a toddler and to start thinking of others after my long probably way too drawn out explanation she said i help you i cook too that got me thinking how can i involve my toddler in the festivities so i ve devised a plan for our thanksgiving day and perhaps you can use some of this or tailor it to your needs some of it will involve cooking and some will not all in all let them know you are thankful for any help they give you mess and all can they help plan the menu i asked charis to help choose some items mashed potatoes or sweet potatoes marshmallows on top or streudel topping corn or peas make a menu for guests thanksgiving cards while you prep cook or clean have your child make a card for family members that are coming this can be as simple as scribbles on paper for young toddlers stamping stickers gluing leaves making a turkey or for older children writing or copying a message thanksgiving place mats help set the table my 2 year old has been helping with that for months now take coats and put them in a designated area when family friends arrive my daughter is working on saying may i take your coat please help clear the table i may give her a bowl to collect all the dirty silverware or a mini trashcan for napkins use discretion dusting mopping sweeping and more i ve gotten my daughter a mini version of a duster mop and broom i give her a small spray bottle of water and let her clean the doorknobs thanks molly or wipe down chairs hide cards for a thanksgiving game of hide and seek turn on tea lights in turkey table toppers make turkey hand print name cards for each of the guest s seats help countdown time until dinner make this ahead of time help set up a play center for the kids table thanksgiving books no bake turkey cookies coloring books table covered with large paper to make thankful drawing small trash can etc check off your list see 6 below cooking ideas make a list and have them check it off i made a picture list picture of pie picture of turkey picture of set table etc and will let her mark it off as we finish i also made one for the big day so we can make sure we have everything out it s not unusual for me to forget rolls in the oven once everyone has gotten there and i get busy chatting green bean casserole let them top it with the onion straws rolls to bake let them line them up on the baking sheet pumpkin pie let them stir the ingredients together and help you pour it in the crust they may slosh a little pie filling on the counter no one will miss it and your little one will love stirring making sweet potato casserole consider letting your child line up the marshmallows on top in rows fine motor skills or sprinkle the cinnamon sugar crumble on top with anything that needs measuring let them help dump it once you measure let them put all the prepped chopped veggies in a bowl so they are ready for you to grab and throw in the pan very young toddlers babies if your little one is too small for this i ve gotten out a plastic table cloth and put her on the floor with her own ingredients rice beans water salt cereal dry oatmeal etc and let her pretend she s cooking too make sure your chosen items are appropriate this is a great time for the pouring or scooping water play activities posted by raegan at

art sets thanks raegan for mentioning them a recent one we did was handprint turkeys i like this because it captures the size of your child s hand age range as soon as you are okay with your child using a do a dot two and up is definitely appropriate you will have to decide on children younger than that skills taught art colors fine motor supplies do a dot pen pencil crayon paper prep trace your child s hand on the paper trace a parent s hand on the paper activity have your child use the do a dots to fill in the feathers on each turkey photos this was the first time we used do a dots so the kids were quite excited about them and wanting to experiement i also realized at one point that i didn t explain the activity well before we started so the end product didn t turn out as i envisioned but they definitely enjoyed themselves the top one is brayden s age 4 5 and the bottome one is kaitlyn s 2 5 posted by valerie plowman at 1 10 am 2 comments email this blogthis share to x
