Turkey Craft for Preschool!
Materials Needed: paper plate/scissors/glue stick/tissue paper squares/free turkey cutouts
Step 1: Print your free turkey cutouts onto cardstock paper. There are many ways your can fill in your paper plate. I chose to use tissue paper squares, but you can also have fun with sponge painting, fork painting, or use watercolors. Be sure to print your Free Turkey Shape Playdough Mats and Turkey Worksheets for tons of turkey fun!
Step 2: Cut out your turkey head and use markers or crayons to color in your bird! My bird has blue hair! Once colored in, use a glue stick to paste his head to the paper plate! Hanging your turkeys on a bulletin board makes for one cheerful November display! Print Thanksgiving Placemats and get ready for Thansgiving dinner!
