“T” is for turkey and this popsicle stick kid craft activity is the PERFECT way to reinforce that idea!

Inspired by my son {I’m trying to step up his letter recognition} today I’m sharing another kid friendly activity that is SUPER simple for kids and adults of all ages to pull together to celebrate the upcoming Thanksgiving season!!!

This Popsicle Stick Turkey Kid Craft Idea has endless possibilities since you can have children decorate it ANY WAY THEY LIKE! And it’s just that – a “T” that we turned into a turkey! Then decorate with various embellishments to really hit the idea on the nail! Super fun – right?!

Now let’s grab our craft supplies and get to the step-by-step tutorial below! Happy crafting my friends!!!

“T” is for Turkey Craft Supplies:

* Popsicle Sticks {4 per turkey}
* School Glue
* Yellow Craft Paint
* Paint Brush
* Colored Cardstock
* Scissors
* Mini Clothespins
* Decorative Leaf Stickers
* Wiggle Eyes

Directions:

* First glue your popsicle sticks together to look like an “T.” Two popsicle sticks across two other popsicle sticks. Set aside to let it dry completely. Repeat for each piece you want to make.
* Now it’s time for the paint! We painted ours yellow but you can paint your “body” of the turkey however you like!
* While children on working on the paint, go ahead and cut out facial embellishments from the cardstock. A circle head, triangular beak etc. At this time, you should also assemble the leaf clothespin “feathers” as well.
* To finish off your Popsicle Stick Turkey kid craft – have children glue on their cardstock turkey head to the center of the “T” as well as pinching/adding the clothespin feathers. Then add other embellishments you see fit before displaying proudly!!!
