Draw and cut around your child's hand on colourful paper to make this fun handprint turkey - a perfect quick Thanksgiving craft. Perhaps you could send the turkey to family if you won't be able to see them for the holidays?
You will need:
Paper in brown and 4 additional bright colours
Scraps of white and yellow paper
Black pen
Glue
Instructions:
To make your turkey body, draw around your hand on brown paper. Keep your index and middle fingers together. Cut out the hand, but only cut off the ring and little finger and the thumb so you end up with a shape like this:
From the scraps of paper cut a tiny arch shape in white to be your turkeys beard. Glue this to the top of the body. Cut a yellow triangular beak and glue this on top of the beard. Draw on two black eyes.
Now cut 4 handprints from coloured paper. Glue these to the back of your turkey body to make a tail. Don't forget to write your child's name and the date on the back!
