Kids Craft: How to Make a Turkey

by Kayla Foster February 03, 2016

In the spirit of Thanksgiving (and after looking at many cute turkey themed crafts on Pinterest), we decided to make a turkey paper plate, or rather ask our favorite office 4-year-old to make us one.

Our inspiration comes from I HEART CRAFTY THINGS Paper Plate Turkey Craft pictured below.

What you'll need for this craft:

Large paper plates

Small paper plates

Paint

Construction paper

Googly eyes

Scissors

Glue

Stapler

how to make a Thanksgiving turkey with your child

How you'll make it:

First, we painted the one of the large and one of the small paper plates brown to make the turkey's body.

Next, we put on the googly eyes and cut a beak out of orange construction paper (we were having too much fun and missed out on a few photos).

Then, we stapled on the "turkey feathers," which we made out of strips of colored construction paper.

Finally, we added little feet and a wattle to complete our turkey.

Our finished product!

Our artist gave this craft a thumbs up and even made a second turkey! We present "Monster Turkey" pictured below on the right.
