Thanksgiving

For those who homeschool or would like some extra fun ideas of Thanksgiving projects for their kids, I have updated my homeschooling blog page with some links and ideas that we have used so far this year. Just click on the link in my Favorite Links section to the right for Free Christian Homeschooling.

There are also many great books available at the library. Our family's favorite is called "A Turkey for Thanksgiving" by Eve Bunting. Bunting is an incredible author with many excellent books published. This book is a cute story about a group of woodland animals who go out to get a turkey for thanksgiving. In the end, the turkey is pleasantly surprised to find that he will be sitting in a chair for thanksgiving and not be on a platter. We don't just like it because we're vegetarians; we liked this book when we still enjoyed turkey for Thanksgiving. We've also found some great chapter books for older kids. As some of you may know, we are very particular about the books/movies, etc, that our kids read/watch. The books we've found were recommended by another Christian homeschooling group. If you're interested in some of the titles of these books, let me know and I can get them to you. Happy Thanksgiving!
