The turkeys are coming! The turkeys are coming!
Do you have leftover mini pumpkins from Halloween?
A project I like to do with little people is to make them into Thanksgiving turkeys!
You can use ice cream sticks, popsicle sticks or tongue depressors cut in half for the head and tail feathers. The sticks can be colored with crayons or makers.
The littlest learners will need help getting the sticks into the pumpkins after coloring. A knife maybe needed to cut slits into the pumpkin to make it easier to push in the sticks.
They look cute sitting on the Thanksgiving dinner table!
I also have a variety of Thanksgiving ideas and activities on my
