A pretend trip to the first Thanksgiving is what we did today. After reading "The first Thanksgiving" and "One Little, Two Little, Three Little, Pilgrims", We made bonnets and head dresses for our heads. We colored Pilgrim finger puppets, and played pilgrim games (hot potato). We compared pictures of what pilgrims did and had along time ago, with pictures of what we do and have today. But the best part of today was our Thanksgiving Lunch! The children loved to serve each other the food that they brought. We practiced spooning, scooping, pouring, and passing. We made place mats earlier in the month to help remind us how to set a table. It was a lot of fun to have a big meal during preschool. I loved to see what the children liked and didn't like. I was really surprised that the pumpkin pie was such a hit! Believe it or not, I think the turkey was the least favorite, however rolls and olives were gobbled up! Thanks to all Mommy's who helped make this a fun and memorable day at preschool!
