Let’s make some Turkeys

With Thanksgiving coming up this weekend, I thought we could make some cute Thanksgiving Turkeys.  These crafts can get a little messy, but remember mess equals fun!!!

To make this craft you will need

Red, yellow, orange and brown paint ( or whatever colors you want to make your turkey)

Some paper, scissors, glue and googly eyes if you want

 

Directions

Paint your child’s hand or if they are older they can paint their own hand, and press it onto the paper.  Repeat it with different colors to make the Turkey’s feathers.  Let them dry.

Now you get to paint their foot with brown paint and do the toes in orange and press this onto a different paper and let this also dry.

When they are dry you can let your child, or if they are too small you can cut around the hand prints and foot prints.  Also cut out a tear drop and a beak and let your child glue them on as well as the eye.

Finally glue the feathers (hand prints) on and you have your cute little Turkey.

 

Another turkey that is also really cute is a Leaf Turkey

When you are outside, collect some beautiful leaves off the ground to use as your Turkey’s  feathers and you can create your own Leaf Turkey.
