For a lively turkey-day kids’ table, have each one make their own turkey placemat.
There’s all sorts of ways you and your kids can show that you’re thankful — for the many blessings each of us have. A constant reminder is by having the kids make a turkey-day craft. You can use materials you already have at home, such as brown paper bags, paper plates and a little creativity!
For the bird’s head and body, help youngsters cut large circles and tracings of their feet from a paper grocery bag. To make festive feathers, paint or color paper plates and cut them in half several times to get pie slice shapes. Tape them to the back of the body. Top the turkey with feet cut from an orange place and facial features (beak, gobbler) form from scraps of paper.
Get creative and make your own version! You can also have your child write what they are thankful for either on the turkey feathers, or somewhere on the placement.
