Thanksgiving Craft

If you are looking for a fun Thanksgiving project, look no further. I have the perfect activity that only requires minimal creativity and supplies. You will need a piece of construction paper and red, orange and brown finger paint. My daughter brought home from school the fabulous picture to the left. Using your child’s hand and finger paint create a turkey. Add this poem and you have a fabulous keepsake.

Thanksgiving Day Poem

This isn’t just any turkey.
As anyone can see.
I made it with my hand,
Which is part of me.
It comes with lot of love,
Especially to say,
I hope you have a very
Happy Thanksgiving Day!

Thanksgiving activities, like this craft, are great exercises to perform in a classroom or after school with your child. The above craft can be used to create an affordable Thanksgiving placemat – you will want to laminate it. It can also be used to send Thanksgiving cards to those friends and family members you may not see on Thanksgiving Day or as a keepsake to give to your child when they grow up.
