Who doesn't love Thanksgiving crafts?

I'm Thankful for Busy Hands

Print hands with brown tempera (we made 6 each) 

Kiddos cut around the hands leaving a white border 
(For little ones, I drew the border with a pencil first)

Add beak with yellow triangle scrap and a googly eye (craft glue works best)



Add multicolored feathers to each finger

Cut a paper towel tube or toilet paper tube in half (or so) and connect with craft glue


Viola! A turkey napkin ring! Little hands are perfect for this project :)

It took me 4 years to paint like Raphael, but a life time to paint like a child.
