Thanksgiving Celebration

Every monthly box from Mother Goose Time comes with a monthly celebration kit.  This months bonus day was for Thanksgiving.  During circle time the kids each said something they were thankful for, which I wrote on one of the provided feathers, and then they taped them to the turkey.
The kids used bubble wrap to paint corn.  After their paper dried, I cut out the shapes to make the indian corn for them, and we hung them on the walls.  
The kids split up in to two groups.  One group played stuff the turkey, where they threw cotton balls into a paperbag.
The other group went turkey bowling, and then we switched.
For snack I made a couple bowls of popcorn.  The kids stuffed gloves with colorful cereal to make feathers, and then added the popcorn to the rest of the glove to make a body.  Then we added an eye and beak to each glove to make a turkey snack.  The kids really liked these.
