Turkey Handprint Craft

Burgin is 27 months old

Another adorable craft that they did in Burgin's MOPS daycare class. Make a Turkey out of hand prints!

Thanksgiving Cube

Burgin is 27 months old

Burgin made this (more like colored it), in his MOPS daycare class. The idea is that the child makes the cube and then rolls it. Whatver lands on top is what they say they are thankful for. I couldn't find a similar cube on the web, but a cube can easily be made by cutting two milk cartons and fitting them together. Cover them with paper and drawer or paste some pictures. or use a folding dice template from the web.

Balloon Lightsaber

Idea Source: Filth Wizardry

This is a test run on Filth Wizardry's Balloon Lightsaber. I didn't want to spend a lot of time making them all fancy if case my 2 year old could care less. But not surprisingly, anything with balloons and a flashlight, he got very excited over.

Note: Not any balloon pump will do, you must use one small enough for the twisty balloons.

Felt Turkey

Burgin is 27 months old

Source: I have to find where I got the template.

After printing, cutting the template and the felt. I glued the turkey head together and onto the body. Burgin was able to put the Turkey's feathers on. I also covered a small pizza box with felt to use as a felt board and store my felt board crafts.

In our Religious ed class, students will each put a feather on saying something that they are thankful for.

Turkey Cookies

Thanks to Thrive for this adorable and easy edible item to make. Mine didn't come out as good as theirs, but I also had a 2 year old wanting to help!!

Thanksgiving Tree

Everyday we glue a silk leave to a tree I drew on our slider. When we glue it we say something we are Thankful for.
