Craft Time: Today print out a copy of a turkey coloring sheet or if you are feeling artistic enough for the challenge, draw the outline of a turkey yourself. We found our turkey picture at this link: turkey
Break out those feathers I told you to buy at the beginning of the week. If you opted not to buy feathers, then cut feathers out of construction paper. Now let your kids glue feathers on the turkey.
Art Time: Break out the play dough and sculpt a Mayflower ship, Tom Turkey, or for the artistically challenged, Plymouth rock! Don’t have play dough? There are lots of good recipes available online to make it in your own kitchen.
Music Time: Get out a musical toy for your kids to play with today. Grandma and grandpa got a keyboard for my kids that they just love. There is a demo button that plays kids tunes. Even my one year old can punch the button and get music to play so she can dance.
Story Time: Keep reading those Thanksgiving stories to your kids. Have they picked out a favorite yet?
Indoor Time: Pre-basketball. Get out a ball and a small box or basket. Practice tossing the ball into the box.
Outdoor Time: Play follow the leader. You be the leader first so they get the idea. Lead them all around the yard. Be sure to vary your walk - hop, run, jump, even roll on the ground. Then let your little ones take turns being the leader.
Prep Tip - be sure to hold on to the circulars that come in the mail today. You can use them for your craft time tomorrow!
