Description
A Thanksgiving unit made for toddlers: big, bold turkeys, pies and cornucopias for little hands to dot, trace, snip, glue and squish.
Children feed the turkey, match shadows, count to 3 and set the table, while you follow a short teacher guide and a suggested week. Ideal for daycare, preschool 2s and home.
Most pages are print and go. A grown up cuts the food cards and shadow cards, and you can laminate the feed-me mat, the cards and the play dough mats (for reusable durability). Easy prep, saves you time.

WHY TEACHERS LOVE IT
Every page has one big picture and one simple action, so twos and threes can work with very little help.
The same Thanksgiving foods come back on many pages, so children hear and say the words again and again.
Black and white pages come first to save ink, and the color pages (cards, feed-me mat and play dough mats) can be laminated and used again.
