Thanksgiving Crafts

The above picture is of Caleb's preschool creation, which I thought was SO cute! It's an apple with the "feathers" being grapes and marshmallows and the head is a craft stick with a turkey head on it stuck in. Loved it! Caleb immediately ate it when he got home. :)

Mamaw & Papaw (used to be from Florida and now it's Tennessee) sent the boys Pilgrim & Indian crafts in the mail.

The boys enjoyed taking these little wooden dolls out and using markers to color them in.

 Here was Caleb's finished Indian:

Joshua picked a Pilgrim to decorate.

Here's his finished product:

Ryan also got markers and colored an Indian:

He colored himself and the table cloth, too! Good thing it's washable. :)

Here was a picture of him with his finished product. He wouldn't hold it up for us, but you get the idea.

Later in the month, Aunt Becky offered to come over and bring some Thanksgiving crafts with her for the boys to complete. These were little "Thankful" wreaths, and they were so cute!

After pulling apart all the foam leaves, wreath and other pieces, she told the boys to write on each one something that they were thankful for. They had to really think!

Becky asked Ryan what he was thankful for. He immediately responded, "BREAKFAST!" We laughed. He does indeed love breakfast. :)

Joshua said he was thankful for family, food, oxygen to breath (a good one for him!), water to drink, school and friends, and God.

Caleb said he was thankful for preschool, his brothers, Mommy & Daddy, food and God (if I'm remembering correctly).

Becky wrote down anything Ryan said he was thankful for, which included his brothers and family. :)

Then we used these glue dots that she brought to adhere the leaves to the green wreath.

After gluing the leaves on, we glued on a bow.

Then we glued on the holder to keep the wreath up.

After that craft, Aunt Becky gave them each a Thanksgiving scene where they could put stickers on to complete it how they wanted. They both enjoyed doing that as well.

Before she left, I tried to get some pictures of the kids and their crafts with her. Enjoy!

Thanks for the crafts and fun times!
