Step 2: Cutting Up Scrap Paper
You may already have a stash of scrap construction paper. Just grab your fall colors (red, orange, yellow, brown) and cut them up into small shapes.
If you need to cut paper for this craft, just cut strips of paper about one inch wide. Stack and line up your strips of paper to cut multiple sheets at a time.
Tip: This craft uses more paper scraps than you think!
Step 3: How to Assemble
Remember, especially with this craft, kids each work at their own pace so you will have some that finish quickly and some that are much slower.
Tip: Make sure to bring extra construction paper because this craft uses more than you think!
- grab a piece of scrap paper
- either paint some white school glue on the back or rub it onto the top of your glue stick
- push the paper piece onto to the turkey where you want it
- continue until all of the turkey feathers are full – try to stay in the lines
- Don’t forget to put your name on the back.
And you’re finished!
This is a great craft for Thanksgiving and Fall. And it’s easy enough for preschool, elementary, Scouts or just a fun craft at home idea.
