… a special preschool storytime about Thanksgiving, families and food! Storytime was filled with flavorful pies, escaping turkeys, and family meals.
Action song
sung to the tune of “If You’re Happy and You Know It”
from Sunflower Storytime
If you’re thankful and you know it,
Clap your hands.
If you’re thankful and you know it,
Stomp your feet.
If you’re thankful and you know it,
Shout “I am!”
If you’re thankful and you know it,
Do all three. (clap your hands, stomp your feet, shout “I am!”)
