Thanksgiving Dinner Craft

We made these cute turkey dinners. Last year we made a Turkey Feast, so I thought this would be a fun change. (Check out the feast, it is super cute)

We used: Paper plate, small paper bag, green and yellow tissue paper, cotton balls, yellow construction paper, clear tape, newspaper and glue.


Just stuff the paper bag with newspaper, twist the end and secure with tape. Place on paper plate.

Glue on cotton balls and glue on a square of yellow construction paper for the mashed potatoes and butter.

Cut small pieces yellow and green tissue paper and roll in balls. Glue on to the plate for the corn and peas.

Pumpkin Pie Craft

Here is a fun, quick and good smelling craft. Make a slice of Pumpkin Pie.
We used: A paper plate, brown and orange paint, paint brush, cinnamon, cotton balls and scissors.
I cut the paper plate into 1/4s. And combined some orange and brown paint to look like Pumpkin pie.
Cheyanne painted the 1/4 of the plate.
While the paint is still wet, sprinkle on the cinnamon and put the cotton balls on top to look like whipped cream.

Now you have you pumpkin pie.

Finger Print Indian Corn

Here is yet another Indian corn project. This is a good project for the younger kids.
We used:White paper, brown, red, orange and yellow paint, scissors, stapler and paper bag.
Make different colored finger prints all over the paper. Allow time for the paint to dry.

Cut out a corn shape and stapler the paper bag to the top.
I made a wreath with the corn and turkey hand prints. It looks better in person.

Finger Painted Turkeys

This is a fun project, even for older kids. When was the last time one of your older kids finger painted? It is fun to watch them, My 8 year old just dotted it at first. I had to tell her it was o.k. to spear it all around and get messy. Cheyanne and Caity loved finger painting the feathers.
We used: Paper plates or white paper, different colored paints, scissors, brown, yellow and red construction paper, and wiggly eyes.

Finger paint the plate or paper. Allow time to dry or put in microwave at 25 second intervals until dry.

If using paper, cut out feather shapes.
Glue the feathers on another sheet of paper in a half circle pattern.
Glue on head and decorate the face.
