My children made paper turkeys today, and they did a lot of different activities--like math, spelling, reading, and history--that incorporated Thanksgiving ideas into each. My 4yo did color by number turkeys (his first time at doing color by numbers). My 6yo had the same picture but decided, after looking at the turkey photo in my Audobon book that some of the colors weren't quite accurate, so he made his truer to life, which was fun, too! I think my children would love some Christmas themed school. I hadn't thought about it before, but now you've got me thinking! We do school all year long, taking off a little while I'm canning during the year, so changing up the work a bit (yet still giving the same types of work) is fun for them!
