Paper Roll Turkey Craft

November 4, 2012 by Kimberly 6 Comments

We were happy to add this classic turkey craft to our roster of Thanksgiving crafts! Tonight after dinner, Lorelai excitedly painted this little guy. He was so simple to make and turned out so cute! If you celebrate Thanksgiving, or just like turkeys, then you have to do this one. The best part of it is you most likely have all of the materials just lying around. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again – save every toilet paper roll!

Materials:

1 Toilet Paper Roll
1 Paper Plate
Paint
Glue
Googly Eyes
Scissors

Directions:

Paint the toilet paper roll brown and set aside to dry.
Cut your paper plate in half. Paint one side. This will be the tail feathers for the turkey.
With the other side of the paper plate, cut out a beak and the red beard.
Have your child paint the beak and beard.
Once the paper roll is dry, glue on the eyes, beak, and beard.
Then, glue the paper roll to the painted paper plate half.
You’re done!
