Thanksgiving Fun with Our Two Turkeys

We are keeping things pretty low key here until our family arrives for Thanksgiving but we have had some fun.  Sophie and Rhys both enjoyed preschool activities revolving around the day of thanks.  Sophie made a Thanksgiving themed place mat and used it at her preschool's Thanksgiving lunch feast.  Rhys was happy making the time honored hand print turkey.

At home, we made cool turkey hats with some friends and played a variation of hide and seek wearing them.  Sophie would hide and "gobble" and we would come and "hunt" her.
Later, Rhys worked on decorating our family's "thankful jar" with holiday themed pictures.  Sophie practiced her cutting skills to make slips of paper for us to write our blessings on.  Sophie will dictate to her parents and Rhys will use pictures of items he is thankful for.
Hope you are enjoying your own personal and family traditions this year.  Feel free to share some of them in a comment.
