Thanksgiving Craft Day!

Yesterday, Lily, Camden , and Johnny made scarecrows and turkeys!
We started off making the scarecrows.
We needed these things:

Paper bags, glue, googly eyes, leaves, a marker, and construction paper.
I pre-cut hats, noses, bow ties, and hair.
If they had been older I would have had them cut them out themselves,
but these little guys are just 2, 3, and 4. =)

They got to gluing on their faces, hair, and hat.
Then they added a big smile!

After the glue was dry, we stuffed them with newspaper and taped the bottom shut.
Here are our cute scarecrows:

Seriously....best picture out of quite a few pictures...... =)

Our next project was turkeys!!
Here are the things we needed for this craft:

Feathers (I found them at Walmart), googly eyes, and construction paper.
Again, I pre-cut out turkey bodies, beaks, and waddles.

First they got to spread glue all over their paper!
So much fun for these little guys! ;-)
Then they put their feathers on, made their turkey bodies, and glued them onto the feathers.


I think they turned out pretty cute!



We are planning on doing more Thanksgiving crafts next week too!
