Kids Thanksgiving Poems
A turkey is a funny bird,
Its head goes wobble, wobble,
All it knows is just one word,
"Gobble, gobble, gobble."

Let's talk turkey
What a walk it's got
Strut about, strut about,
Do the turkey trot
Let's talk turkey,
What a shaky wobble
Strut about, strut about,
Gobble, gobble, gobble

Tell me, Mr. Turkey,
Don't you feel afraid
When you hear us talking
'Bout the plans we've made?
Can't you hear us telling
How we're going to eat
Cranberries and stuffing
With our turkey meat?
Turkey, heed my warning:
Better fly away;
Or you will be sorry
On (Thanksgiving) (Christmas) day.

I love the taste of turkey right throughout the year
But it really never taste as good as when Thanksgiving's here.
It could be all the trimmings that are cooked with it to eat
But I think it's being at Grandma's house that makes it such a treat!

T is for turkey on Thanksgiving Day,
H is for "Hurry, I'm hungry!" we say.
A is for Auntie, she works and she mends,
N is for Native American friends.
K is for kitchen, the oven's on low,
S is for silverware, set in a row.
G is for Grandma, the one we love most,
I is for inside, where we're warm as toast.
V is for vegetables, eat them we try,
I is for ice cream on top of the pie.
N is for never do we have enough dressing,
G is for Grandpa, who gives thanks for our blessings.

Kids Thanksgiving Poems
When the leaves have fallen off the trees,
And the harvest has been gathered in,
And animals have their winter feed,
And pumpkins stored in barn and bin,
Momma says to all the kids,
"The fields are brown, the Fall is here
We must make some yummy food
For Thanksgiving Day is very near,

Cranberries dripping down my chin
Have stained my pilgrim suit.
I ate too much Thanksgiving day
But I don't give a hoot.
I slurped a pile of dressing,
Gobbled down a turkey thigh,
Dribbled messy cranberries
Devoured some pumpkin pie.
Within me on this special day
It's a thankful heart that beats.
For all the things that I enjoy
But mainly for the eats.
