📚 Story: Mike the Turkey’s Silly Banana Split Surprise
In the middle of a busy farm, there lived a funny turkey named Mike.
Mike didn’t care about corn or pumpkin pie — oh no, not him!
He loved one thing more than anything else in the world… 🍌🍦
Banana split ice cream!
Every Sunday, Mike scooped up banana slices, ice cream, chocolate syrup, and a cherry on top. It was his favorite day of the week.
But one day, Mike said, “Hmm… maybe I should try something new!”
So he looked around the kitchen and found a big jar of rainbow sprinkles. 🌈
He shook it once. He shook it twice.
And then — SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE! — sprinkles went everywhere! On the floor, the counter, his feathers… and right into his banana split!
Mike took a bite and gasped.
“Wow! Sprinkles are AMAZING!” he said, eyes wide. “They make every bite feel like a party!” 🎉
From that day on, Mike didn’t just eat banana splits — he made Banana Split Sprinkle Parties for all his farm friends.
There were sprinkles on ice cream, sprinkles on pancakes, even sprinkles on mashed potatoes (but that one was not a good idea). 😝
Everyone laughed, danced, and shouted,
“Three cheers for Mike! The silliest turkey with the tastiest ideas!”
And from then on, Thanksgiving wasn’t just about pie — it was about trying something new and sharing it with friends!

🍦 Poem: “The Turkey and His Banana Split”
Turkey grabbed a spoon one day,
And shouted, “Hooray, it’s snack time—yay!”
He scooped up bananas, whipped cream, and more,
Then sprinkled it silly—sprinkles galore! 🌈
He giggled and said, “Now this is neat,
A banana split is quite the treat!”
The cows and ducks all came to see,
And said, “Save some sprinkles for me!” 😄
