Gobble Gobble! Today I’m sharing another Thanksgiving themed kid craft and this one is titled Leaf Turkey.
With just some cardstock, a paper plate and some cheap plastic leaves – I was able to pull together this craft for my lil man in little to no time.
It’s super easy to assemble and like the supplies I listed suggest – it’s super inexpensive too!
Although you could easily use leaves from outside for this craft – we were snowed in {dang Wyoming weather} so the leaves I found the week before at my local Dollar Tree, were the perfect alternative. Whichever direction you go – I hope this Thanksgiving kid craft tutorial inspires you! #gluedtomycrafts
Supplies:
* Large Paper Plate
* Plastic Leaves {Dollar Tree}
* School Glue
* Cardstock {tan, red, orange}
* Scissors
* Black Marker
Directions:
* Put a good amount of glue all over the paper plate. Have your child lay the leaves on the plate, until it’s completely covered.
* While your child is doing that, draw/cut out a turkey shape out of your cardstock. Don’t forget to add embellishments like a nose, eyes etc.
* Once your child is done, glue the turkey cutout to the front of the paper plate.
* Let it dry completely before displaying. {If the glue doesn’t make it stick, staple the pieces together}
I have a few more “turkey” kid crafts to share in the coming days, so be sure to come back throughout the week! I also have a ton of kid friendly ideas that I’m “pinning” on my Activities for Children Pinterest board so be sure to follow over there too!
