Instructions

  • Download the turkey template and print it out on white art paper or thick cardstock.
  • Let the kids paint in all the pieces, then let them dry completely. Cut out all the pieces. If you want to use a watercolored background, then take a 2nd piece of white art paper and paint it for the sky background.
  • Create the turkey by gluing the eyes to the middle of the head.
  • Place the top of the snood right below the eyes and glue it in place. Then glue the beak on top of the snood.
  • Next, take the turkey's head and neck piece and glue it to the main body.
  • Position the wings on either side of the body and glue them in place.
  • Glue the feet to the back and bottom of the turkey's body.
  • Finally, glue the turkey's body in the middle of the feathers.
  • Place the hill at the bottom of the background paper and glue it in place.
  • Finish up by gluing the turkey to the top of the hill.
