Baby Activity - Turkey Rhymes


Last year I wanted a simple turkey song/rhyme that B could remember and say parts of with me (He was about 18 months at the time). This is the one we used:


FUNNY TURKEY
The turkey is a funny bird.
It’s head goes wobble, wobble.
All it knows is just one word
And that is gobble, gobble!
-Traditional

This is one of the rhymes I'm going to teach him this year:


WALK LIKE A TURKEY
(A movement rhyme)
Walk like a turkey,Woddle, woddle, woddle.
Talk like a turkey,Gobble, gobble, gobble.
Run like a turkey‘Round and ‘round.
But when it’s Thanksgiving
Don’t make a sound!
- Jean Warren


I'm also really liking this one:


FAMILIES
Some families are large.
Some families are small.
But I love my family
Best of all!
- Author Unknown


These rhymes and many more are found at Preschool Express.
