Next Thursday we'll be with family and friends celebrating Thanksgiving, so today was our last opportunity to celebrate turkeys at Storytime. We read three stories about this famous bird.
A Plump and Perky Turkey by Teresa Bateman told the story of a town who tried to trick a turkey into being Thanksgiving dinner (
here's a video of the story!).
This is the Turkey by Abby Levine was a rhyming and sequential story about a family preparing their holiday meal. Eve Bunting's
A Turkey for Thanksgiving was the clear favorite today, about a Moose family preparing Thanksgiving dinner for their animal friends and Mr. Moose's quest to find a turkey to be their special guest.
For our craft - yes, a turkey! Looped strips of colorful wallpaper and construction paper made the feathers for our paper-plate bird. A kraft paper body with eyes, beak, legs, and a snood finished him off.
Then, to the delight of other patrons, we had an impromptu turkey parade around the library! Such a fun way to end our time together!
