Since the turkey is the most prominent symbol of Thanksgiving, it only follows that we will make turkey crafts to decorate our homes. They are all cute and easy and will make the home or classroom look really festive for Thanksgiving - all at the hands of a child!

Handprint Turkey

We are HUGE fans of using your child's limbs as decorations for any holiday. No, we’re not talking about the actual limbs! Just tracing around them and then using the images to make some great creations! This hand print and foot print turkey is one of the easiest and cutest around!

For this craft, you will need construction paper in colors of brown, yellow, orange, and red, scissors, glue, and wiggly eyes or eyes cut out of construction paper (although the wiggly eyes look so much more fun!)

First, trace around your child’s feet on the brown construction paper. Trace around both of them as these will be the turkey’s body. Do not trace around the individual toes!

After that, trace around your child’s hands on the red, yellow, and orange construction paper with their fingers slightly spread out. If your child is old enough to do this himself (or herself), by all means, let them! After all, crafting is a learning experience, so let them do as much as possible by themselves!

You should have two hand prints out of each color which will form the feathers of your turkey! Then you can assemble the turkey’s body. The heels of the foot will make the turkey’s head. Glue both pieces together slightly overlapping.

You will need a round wattle out of the red construction paper and a yellow beak. These are easy to do without a template. The wattle is slightly elongated. The beak is pointed almost in the shape of a triangle.

At this point, you can make the legs for your turkey. Cut two thin strips (not too thin!) of brown construction paper and then accordion fold them for the legs. The feet are made out of yellow construction paper and should have three points to simulate the feet.

Now, you are ready to assemble your turkey! Arrange the hand prints behind the foot prints and then glue into place. Glue on the facial features. Finally, add the legs and feet. Put wiggly eyes on your turkey so who knows where he (or she) is looking! Let dry and then hang wherever you want!

Don’t forget to date the back of this great craft! You can make this a holiday tradition and make them each year. Marvel as you watch how much your child has grown over the years and be sure to display previous year’s turkeys so your guests can see too!
