RELATED —> Handprint Turkey Cards

Directions:

  • Grab THREE coffee filters per turkey craft you want to make.
  • Stack them, one on top of each other and flatten them out with your hands.
  • Take your stapler and secure the three coffee filters all together. Two-three staplers along the edge should do.
  • Now decorate the coffee filter stack, however you want, with the various colors of craft paint. The more colors, the better!
  • When you are done painting the coffee filters, set them aside to allow them to dry a bit.
  • Now grab the FREE turkey body printable listed above. You should print it, in color, on a single sheet of white cardstock. One printable makes THREE turkeys.
  • Go ahead and cut out one of the turkey body shapes.
  • Secure your paper turkey piece to the front of your painted coffee filter stack.
  • Add any other embellishments you see fit {maybe some wiggle eyes or glitter!}
  • Then display your coffee filter turkey creations proudly for all to see! #gluedtomycrafts

Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible.
