Today I am taking the day to enjoy time with members of my extended family. The Smith clan is in South Carolina this year for a family reunion and a time to give thanks. I hope you enjoy looking for this wonderful collection of fall crafts and activities.
Here are the Fall Crafts and Activities:
A yummy Turkey Bento Lunch with apple feathers and frozen yogurt Thanksgiving molds was served to JDaniel two weeks ago for lunch.
JDaniel and I made a delicious Pumpkin Smoothie. It was smooth and just a tad spicy, according to the JDaniel.
One morning for breakfast JDaniel had Apple Cider Pancakes. My husband keeps asking me to make more; the ones I made for him disappeared too quickly, he claims.
The final picture in this collage isn’t food-related, but we did have fun with the owls in it. They were for a post called Owl Craft for Skip Counting. We counted by ones as we counted their beaks; we counted by twos when we counted their eyes, and we counted by threes when we counted their claws.
A turkey activity for preschoolers and others to work on spatial terms like above, below, and over was created with feeling. JDaniel was told to place the small red feather on the large green one. Then we were asked to place it beside the large red feather. We had a great time making various turkeys with this activity.
Beside it is a turkey JDaniel created. His feathers were created by painting in a salad spinner.
JDaniel and I did our November shopping for our local food bank using a word and picture guide I created that displays food the food bank really needs.
Here are some of our fall crafts and activities :
JDaniel and I made two paper plate turkeys. They were a part of a post called Read.Explore.Learn.- Trouble at the Tappleton’s.
I made the turkey bowling pins for JDaniel when he was two and a half. The turkey’s body was made of his handprints. The post was simply called Read.Explore.Learn.- Thanksgiving
We made the turkey treat bag to take to our local fire station. We filled the bag with cookies. The post the bag was featured in was called Read.Explore.Learn.- The Firefighter’s Thanksgiving.
Our thankfulness tree sat on our kitchen table last Thanksgiving. It is filled with leaves that list things we are thankful for. The post that featured the tree is called Thanksgiving for Kids: Being Thankful.
The muffin tin meal on the top of this collage features a turkey and all different foods a turkey would eat. The post was called Muffin Tin Monday- Turkey’s Food Pyramid Meal.
I hope you and yours have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
