Thanksgiving Fun!





The Pilgrims and Indians could not go to the store to buy the food they needed for their Thanksgiving feast, they had to grow it and make it.  One of the activities we did this afternoon was to turn cream into butter.  We talked about how the Pilgrims used a butter churn.  We pretended with a jar of heavy whipping cream.  The kids took turns shaking it, and it magically changed from a liquid to a solid and we had butter!  The kids sampled their butter at a small feast of butter and crackers.
