What’s better than sitting down and enjoying the fruits of your labor with good friends? We had such a wonderful time today enjoying each other’s company as we finally got to eat the foods we had been working so hard to prepare. The children enjoyed their homemade applesauce, homemade bread with their own handmade butter, fresh green beans, corn, mashed potatoes and turkey. We ate our entire fresh fruit turkey we worked so hard to make…and of course our mini pumpkin pies.
What fun we had this week preparing for our Thanksgiving Feast! We watched in amazement as our cream turned to butter by our own hands. Then we took turns mixing the ingredients for homemade bread, kneading the dough, watching it rise and baking it up to golden perfection. Our classroom smelled like fresh baked bread, it was hard not to gobble it up right when it came out of the oven! We also had a great time preparing the green beans by washing, snapping off the ends and breaking them into two. I think the kids could have done that all day. But, for the most important part of our Thanksgiving meal…the pumpkin pie. We each made our own mini pie to enjoy on Feast Day. We were delighted to see all of the children working together towards the common goal of creating a feast they could all enjoy.
We learned about the Mayflower today. Who sailed on the Mayflower? What was it like? What were the pilgrims allowed to bring on board? What did they eat? Was it an easy voyage? Where were they going? We answered all of these questions and many more as we explored the voyage of the Mayflower to Plymouth.
