I did modify it a little. I used tulle for the brown, instead of using ribbon or yarn.

Turkey Craft for Kids

Thanksgiving Turkey Craft for Kids

Materials needed: empty baby food jar; red, orange, and yellow paint; orange pipe cleaners; orange and red felt (or other material); googly eyes; paper; and Reese's Pieces M&Ms!

Pour the M&Ms into the clean, empty jar. Cut two turkey legs out with the pipe cleaner and hot glue them onto the bottom. Cut a beak out of the orange felt and a gizzard out of the red felt. Hot glue the beak, the gizzard, and the googly eyes onto the front. Paint the lid orange, yellow, red, or brown. 

Take your child's hand print. Since I had a wiggly nine month old, I had to trace it onto paper, cut it out, and paint it myself. Then I glued the painted hand print onto red construction paper. I cut it out and taped it onto the back. :)

Thankful Tree

I made this last year. I put it up every November. Every day, each member in my family puts a leaf or two on the tree that says what they are thankful for that day. I love this tradition! I made it out of felt so that it would last for a long time. I got the idea from Pinterest.

DIY Thank You Card

String the buttons onto colorful yarn. I then hot glued the yarn onto the white card stock.Then, using colorful markers, write "Thanks" or "Celebrate." Pretty cute and easy. Inspired by Pinterest. 

Ghost Suckers

These are the easiest Halloween treats. I made these ghost suckers for my nieces and nephews for Halloween. They are easy to do. Wrap a sucker in Kleenex, tie a ribbon around them, and draw a ghost face with a magic marker. Simple, cheap, and cute!

Halloween Footprints

This was a little craft I did with my son. I dipped his feet into white, orange, and yellow paint. Pretty simple and cute!

DIY Halloween Bag

This is a bag I made for my son for Halloween. I used black and orange felt, two googly eyes, and some ribbon. The legs and mouth is sewn into the felt. This was inspired from Pinterest.
