Hand Print Turkeys

By Stephanie Boyle

To create hand print Turkeys, you will need;

  • a small amount of paint (brown, red and orange)
  • paint brush
  • construction paper
  • marker

Paint the child's fingers red, paint the palm brown and the thumb orange. The palm is the body of the turkey, fingers are the feathers, and the thumb is the beak. After painting their hands get them to press their hand onto the construction paper. Get them to add the beaks and legs onto the turkey once their dry. Also get the child to print their name (if they can spell their name, if not get them to help you print it) also write " I am Thankful for..." above or beside the Turkey.

A great decoration to hang on your refrigerators for Thanksgiving!
