I Like Thanksgiving

This happy little tune is the perfect short and sweet song for singing at Thanksgiving time. It's a 2-beat country shuffle, which means the eighth notes swing. The first time this is apparent for singers is in measure 14. Let your kids listen to ours on the recording to get what we mean.

During the section that starts at measure 21, let "all join hands," as the lyrics say. Continue to hold hands for the rest of the tune, if you like, having singers sway or bounce to the beat. Or, when they repeat back to the D.S., have them add claps on the offbeats.
