PLAYING ON THE BED
Four little kids
On Thanksgiving Day,
Went up to a bedroom
So that they could play
The four little kids started jumping on the bed.
One fell off and bumped his head.
He ran to his mother and his mother said,
"No more kids jumping on the bed!"
Three little kids started wiggling on the bed.
One fell off and bumped her head.
She ran to her mother and her mother said,
"No more kids wiggling on the bed!"
Two little kids started rolling on the bed.
One fell off and bumped his head.
He ran to his mother and his mother said,
"No more kids rolling on the bed!"
One little kid, left on the bed.
She got bored and so she said,
"Playing on the bed is not much fun
When you are now the only one!"
Soon it was time for dinner
There were no kids on the bed.
"Happy Thanksgiving,"
Is what they now all said.

THE TURKEY PARADE
Tune: “When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again”
The turkeys are marching into town, hooray, hooray!
They are marching in a Thanksgiving, Day, parade.
Some are short, some are tall.
Some are big, some are small.
Oh, we’re oh so glad, that they could come today.
The turkeys are marching into town, hooray, hooray!
Watch them waddle, as they march, along, our way.
They spread their feather way out, so.
And they gobble, gobble, as they go.
Oh, we’re all so glad, that dinner has come today!
Have your children act out the Turkey Parade song, with or without
costumes. At the end of the song, have the turkeys look surprised
and frightened, then turn around and run off gobbling, before they
are caught.
