When you think about Thanksgiving craft for toddlers, there’s has to be a turkey in there somewhere! This paper turkey was fun to make. With a bit of adult preparation, your toddler can assemble it and see their turkey come to life!
What you need:
- Black cardboard or black construction paper
- Red, yellow and orange construction paper
- Glue
- Googly eyes
What to do:
- Cut out a circle from the black cardboard. I traced around a plate for this
- Cut the colored construction paper into strips
- Cut out 2 small ovals from the construction paper and a triangle (beak) from the yellow paper
- Get your toddler to glue the strips of paper onto the back of the black circle
- Glue on the beak
- Glue on the googly eyes.
