We shared a traditional Thanksgiving song, a delicious “pie” story and flannel board, said hello to fall, sang songs, enjoyed the nursery rhyme Little Jack Horner, and watched Max eat way too much stuffing in the video, Max’s Thanksgiving. \u00a0There was also a simple “turkey” take-home craft.<\/p>\n

A Song for Thanksgiving <\/strong>by Lydia Maria Child<\/p>\n

This book is meant to be sung – illustrations of a country Thanksgiving filled with snow, a sleigh, pumpkin pie and the love of family accompany the lyrics to this New England Thanksgiving Classic.<\/p>\n

What’s Thanksgiving without pie? \u00a0In All for Pie and Pie for<\/strong> All<\/strong> by David Martin, we see a reverse take on the classic tale of The Little Red Hen<\/strong>. \u00a0Grandma Cat begins the fun by baking a delicious pie which she shares with her kitty family and (unbeknownst to her) with a family of mice and ants. \u00a0After the pie is ALL gone, Grandma Cat declares that she’s still hungry and asks if she should bake another pie. \u00a0Of course ALL say yes and ALL (cats, mice and ants) offer to help her bake the new one. \u00a0Great cadence and gentle yet interesting illustrations. \u00a0A big hit with the toddlers!<\/p>\n

After singing our pie song, \u00a0we identified the different types of pie \u00a0and the corresponding colors. \u00a0I also made the children close \u00a0their eyes while I removed the Pumpkin pie slice; I then asked \u00a0them to open their eyes and try to guess which pie slice Miss Marie ate! \u00a0It was great fun as they tried to determine which flavor was missing…<\/p>\n
