GRATITUDE ATTITUDE!
We had a great time today singing songs about turkeys, eating meals together, and of course, thankfulness!
Scroll down to see cute pictures of our friends doing turkey fingerplays, and watch a video of the songs from class, too!
Also don't miss the adorable mp3s below of the four year old class talking about what they are thankful for, as well as singing the call and response Thanksgiving song that we did with triangles! As always, questions to ask your child about today are included as well.

Mr. Turkey and Mr. Duck
Start with hands behind back, to the tune of "A Peanut Sat on a Railroad Track"
Mr. Turkey went out one day
(one hand is turkey, and comes out to front)
In bright sunshiny weather
He met Mr Duck along the way
(other hand is duck, and comes out )
They stopped to talk together
Gobble, gobble, gobble, quack, quack, quack
Gobble, gobble, gobble, quack, quack, quack
And then they both went back
(hands go back behind back)
