Kids will be eager to help set the Thanksgiving table with these little napkin-holding gobblers.
Materials
- Flat wooden craft spoons
- Tempera or acrylic paints
- Paper towel tube
- Scissors
- Orange pipe cleaners
- Black marker
- Tacky glue
- Red felt
Instructions
- Five craft spoons are required for each ring. Using tempera paint, color one of them yellow for the turkey's head, the others, a variety of colors (they'll be used for tail feathers).
- For the turkey's body, cut a 2-inch section from a cardboard paper towel tube and paint it brown.
- From orange pipe cleaners, shape a pair of short legs with three-toed turkey feet. Fit the legs through small holes in the cardboard tube, bending the tips inside the tube to secure them.
- Use a marker to draw eyes on the face and use tacky glue to attach a red felt wattle.
- Finally, glue the head to the front of the body and the tail feathers to the back.
