Thanksgiving is a time for family, gratitude, and creativity – especially when it comes to keeping the kids entertained with seasonal crafts. This year, elevate your children’s crafting experience with a playful and straightforward project that brings the charm and warmth of the holiday into your home.

Craft Supplies:

Directions:

  • First things first – print out the FREE peeking turkey printable listed above. Print one turkey per craft, on a single sheet of white cardstock.
  • Next up – trim out the turkey design and set it aside till you are ready for it.
  • Next up, grab ONE large paper plate per turkey craft.
  • Go ahead and cut it in half, to resemble a carved open pumpkin.
  • Now grab your craft paints and paint brushes.
  • Decorate the paper plate halves to look like a pumpkin.
  • When done, set them aside to let them dry a bit.
  • Finally – the last step. Grab all your paper pieces and stapler.
  • Staple the two paper plate pieces back together to look like an opening pumpkin.
  • Follow that up by stapling in the paper turkey, to the back of the paper plate pieces. Your pilgrim turkey friend should look like he is peeking out of a pumpkin.
  • Now grab your brown cardstock.
  • Cut out a small rectangle to be the “stump” of the pumpkin.
  • Go ahead and staple that to the top of your decorated paper plate piece.
  • Follow that up by stapling on the green pipe cleaner “stem” to really pull it together.
  • And that’s it! Add other embellishments you see fit before displaying your Peeking Turkey Inside A Pumpkin proudly for ALL to see!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. 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. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
