T is for Turkey

Since Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away, we have started to doing our Thanksgiving preschool activities. We are starting with T is for Turkey. I want to review shapes, colors, and letters with my son so I made these fun worksheets for him to do.

For this activity  cut out all the letters and put them in a bowl. Then have your child pull out a letter and identify it. Then say Turkey, Turkey, don't run away. I am going to stuff you with the letter ... and then say whatever letter was just pulled out. 

Just cut out each turkey and line them up on one row. Then cut the colored square and have your child match the colors and say what each color is. 

This activity is simple because your child does all the work. Have your child cut out each shape square and then glue on to the matching turkey shape.

Thanksgivng color recognition game: I'm Going on Turkey Hunt

 

This week for preschool my son and I were learning about the letter "T." I found this adorable rhyme about going on a Turkey hunt (click here for original resource). After I said each color rhyme, my son would have to go around the house and bring me back that color. He loved it and has been hunting for a turkeys all day. I had this idea after we played our game that it would be a great outside activity. Just glue the turkeys to a popsicle stick and put them in the lawn, then your child can run outside on the lawn hunting for the turkeys.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Thankful turkey craft

For Family Home Evening our family talked about all the wonderful things we are blessed with. Last year, we made a thankful turkey and wrote all the things we were thankful for on the turkey's feathers. We don't usually do a lot of holiday decorating at our house and I really like traditions, so I thought what a great tradition it would be every year to display our thankful turkeys throughout the month of November and continue to add to our collection each year. It will be fun to go back through the years and see how our kids have matured as they think of the blessings in their life. 

 This is our turkey from last year.

And this is our turkey for this year.
