Thanksgiving is only a week away! We thought this week would be fun to share something with you that your kids can partake in…something that will help get them excited for Thanksgiving too!
One of our former interns, Alisha, is an AMAZING artist. And she has shared her skills with us in creating a fun turkey craft you and your kids will love! It’s a great opportunity for your kids to learn about some turkey anatomy and have fun dressing their turkey up in a costume!
Turkey Craft PDF for Print
What you’ll need to make your turkey craft:
- Scissors
- Glue
- Colored markers, crayons, or pencils
- Kids (or adults!)
Here's a video on how to make this:
You’ll have two pages. Page 1 is the base page, and page 2 has all the body parts and costume pieces.
Step 1: Make sure to add your name!
Step 2: Color in all the body parts and costume pieces on page 2.
Step 3: Next, cut out the body parts and glue them into their outlined spots on page one.
Step 4: Then, you’ll cut out the turkey body on page 2, and attach it to page 1 by gluing it to the “only glue here!” outline. The reason for that is so that you can unfold the top turkey and see what’s inside!
Step 5: Now comes the really fun part! You get to dress up your turkey! What do you think turkeys like to wear? Cut out the costume pieces you want to put on your turkey and glue them on however you like!
And there you go! A fun art project the whole family can enjoy. They make great decorations for your Thanksgiving festivities too!
So click on the file below and print it out, gather the kids around the table, and let the fun begin!
