What you need for the Thanksgiving treat:
raisin boxes
construction paper
glue
marker (black and red)
tape
TO MAKE THE THANKSGIVING TREAT:
Cut paper feathers out of colored construction paper, triangle beaks out of orange paper, and white or brown strips to wrap as the body.
Wrap the raisin box in white or brown construction paper and tape to hold (I would have used brown but I didn’t have any on hand).
With your markers, draw some eyeballs and wattles. I decided to add some eyebrows for facial expressions, I know my son would LOVE to receive an angry turkey!
Glue a beak on the front of the box.
Tape the paper feathers to the back of the box.
That’s it! I hope your kids enjoy their raisin turkeys as a fun and festive Thanksgiving treat!
