Lapbooks??

Okay, Let me just say that I have never done a lapbook before. I am not even sure what one is. I have seen pictures of them on other peoples blogs and they look pretty neat. I am not one to get into long projects. If it takes more than a couple of hours then I think it's long. LOL So I figured that lapbooks are not for me.
Today I was working with my 5 yr. old and we were doing a bunch of worksheets and things that were Thanksgiving related and I thought I wonder if I could make one of those lapbook things. I don't know if we did it the correct way but we had some fun trying to work it out. We didn't do any research and I'm guessing that  you are probably supposed to do that. Here is our finished product.

We cut out a picture of a Turkey and she also colored one. She has some ABC Turkey cards in the little pocket.

She did a color by letter turkey and the bottom one is matching turkeys to the numbers.

We made a turkey using her hands and construction paper.

Well, we had fun. It was a lot of work. I MIGHT look into how you are REALLY supposed to do a lapbook but this works for now. I could probably have my older kids do some really neat ones without a lot of help from me. So we will see.

We have only done a few lapbook here but we enjoy them.

That is a cute turkey hand print craft. Where did you find that?

I saw the idea on a website and we just did it freehand. I traced her hands and cut them out and did the body and legs freehand.
