These preschool Thanksgiving activities are the perfect way to learn about Thanksgiving and practice learning activities at the same time.
These Thanksgiving activities and turkey activities are perfect for encouraging children to practice math, colors, the alphabet, literacy skills, fine motor skills and so much more. We especially love that they are hands-on Thanksgiving activities so children are learning with their senses!
One of the best ways to teach children is through preschool themes. Since Thanksgiving is a holiday, it makes it a perfect theme for children to explore more about since they are seeing and hearing about it all around!
Some of my favorite November-themed activities for preschool are fall activities or Thanksgiving activities. Or if you live in Canada, it would be perfect for October.
