✨ Here are the lyrics to "It's Thanksgiving Time":

It's Thanksgiving time (Thanksgiving time)
It's Thanksgiving time (Thanksgiving time)
It's Thanksgiving time (Thanksgiving time)
It's Thanksgiving time

We can all feel thankful
Flap your wings like a turkey
Flap your wings like a turkey
Flap your wings like a turkey
Flap your wings like a turkey

It's our Thanksgiving dance
Everybody take your hands
Now we're gonna put 'em both together
To say thank you

On Thanksgiving we are feeling grateful
We might eat stuffing or sweet potatoes
Or eat cranberry sauce or might have some turkey
Broccoli and salad that's enough to get dessert

On Thanksgiving we are feeling thankful
Thankful for the food we are so grateful
Thankful for our health thankful for our friends
Thankful for our family our thankfulness will never ever end

It's Thanksgiving time (Thanksgiving time)
It's Thanksgiving time (Thanksgiving time)
It's Thanksgiving time (Thanksgiving time)
It's Thanksgiving time

We can all feel thankful
Flap your wings like a turkey
Flap your wings like a turkey
Flap your wings like a turkey
Flap your wings like a turkey

It's our Thanksgiving dance
Everybody take your hands
Now we're gonna put 'em both together
To say thank you

🍁 Let’s celebrate together with songs full of gratitude and joy!

Impressionism is one of the best known and loved movements in Art History, but why? We present a case for why Impressionism is interesting and worth your attention and admiration, beyond the famous names behind it of Claude Monet, Berthe Morisot, Edgar Degas, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Mary Cassatt, Alfred Sisley, Camille Pissaro, Gustave Caillebotte, Paul Cézanne, et al.

2. Create the object
3. Give the object back to the person (Ideally, you'd do this project in tandem)
