Thanksgiving is the perfect time to make an adorable turkey craft with your kids! We used my favorite painting tool - an old kitchen dish brush and it turned out awesome. I realized after we did this that turning the paper horizontal would probably look better but the turkeys body would be smaller. Gobble gobble!
Materials Needed:
- Brown, red, orange paper
- Googly eyes
- Scissors/glue
- Round dish brush
- Yellow, red, and orange paint
Cut out a turkey's body shape with brown paper and glue it on a piece of white paper. Then cut out a some orange feet and a beak. Glue on the big googly eyes (we got those silly eyelash ones at Michael's craft store!) Have the kids dip their dish brush into the paint and press all around the turkey to make "feathers!"
Let it dry and you've got yourself the best looking turkey on Thanksgiving Day!

This is such a nice idea, I will try it for the next thanksgiving with my son :)
