• Brown, red, orange and yellow construction paper
• Pencil
• Scissors
• Glue
• Googly eyes (optional)

Directions:

1.    Trace around the child's feet using brown construction paper. These two pieces will be the turkey's body.

2.    Trace around the child's hands using red, orange, and yellow construction paper. These 6 pieces will be the turkey's feathers.

3.    Glue the two footprints together to make the turkey's body. (The heels make the head area.) You want to overlap them a little at the bottom to make the waddle.

4.    Cut out a round wattle and an orange beak. Glue the wattle, beak, and googly eyes (or paper eyes) to the turkey's head. Make two legs from paper and glue then to the back of the body (or use pipe cleaners and tape them to the back).

5.    Glue the handprint "feathers" to the back of the turkey.

6.    Put the child's name and age on the back of the turkey. That way you will remember years from now how old your child was when they made these prints!

Happy Thanksgiving!
