Teach Them Tuesdays: Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is just over a week away. Here are some fun activities to get your little ones ready!
  • Activities:
    • Donate to those less fortunate
      • While you're out doing your shopping for Thanksgiving dinner pick up a few extra non-perishable items
      • Find a local food pantry of shelter and take your child to donate the items
      • Discuss what you are doing and why
        • We are thankful for food, shelter, etc.
        • Not everyone has these things
        • It's kind to share what we have with people who need these things
      • Have your child journal about the experience (ask children who can't write yet to draw pictures)
  • Crafts & Cooking:
    • Gobbling Turkey Hat
      • the directions call for foamies, but construction paper will work just as well
