One Whole Pie

One while pie set by the door,

Cut into pieces, I count four.

Four pieces of pie, all for me!

I ate one piece, now there are three.

Three pieces of pie for me too.

I ate another piece, now there are two.

Two pieces of pie, Oh!  What fun!

I ate another piece, now there is one.

One piece of pie, I can’t wait!

I ate that last piece, Empty plate!

Five Fat Turkeys

Five fat turkeys sitting on a fence,

The first one said, “Oh my! I am immense!”

The second one said, “Gobble!  Gobble!  Gobble!”

The fourth one said, “thanksgiving Day is coming!”

The fifth one said, “We’d better start running!”

The turkeys could not be found on Thanksgiving Day, so the poor old farmer had this to say:

“I guess we’ll have to eat pizza!”

I’m a Little Turkey (Turkey Puppet Song)

(Tune:  I’m a Little Tea Pot)

I’m a little turkey, my name is Ted.

Here are my feathers, here is my head.

Gobble, Gobble, Gobble, is what I say.

I run and hide on Thanksgiving Day!

Turkey wore his Red Feather

Turkey wore his red feather, red feather, red feather, Turkey wore his red feather,

All day long!

Green, orange, blue, yellow, pink and white feathers also.

Walk Like a Turkey

Walk like a turkey, waddle, waddle, waddle!

Talk like a turkey, gobble, gobble, gobble!

(Flap arms like wings)

Run like aturkey, ‘round and ‘round.

(Run in place)

But when it’s Thanksgiving, don’t make a sound!

(finger to lips)

Pies in the Oven

Pies in the oven, yum, yum, yum!

I can smell them, oh!  What fun!

One is pumpkin, one is berry.

They will make Thanksgiving merry!

Pies in the oven, yum, yum, yum!

Soon they’ll be in my tum, tum, tum!
