We decided to make some "love turkeys" and send them for our annual Thanksgiving Day cards.
Materials:
construction paper
paint
crayons
glue
cardstock (or blank Christmas cards)
Instructions:
Using paint, make a print of child{ren}'s hand{s}. Let dry and cut out.
Meanwhile, cut out various sizes of hearts out of fall-ish colored paper.
Glue down hearts, which will become the turkey's feathers, onto the front/inside of cards.
Glue down hand prints on top; draw in eyes, feet, beak/wattle.
Let child decorate card with crayons. Insert personal message.
We used, "Happy Thanksgiving. With LOVE, from 2 little turkeys!"
We addressed the cards and took a field trip to the post office to mail them. It's a fun Thanksgiving Day tradition and the grandparents, aunts/uncles, and cousins look forward to receiving these!
