Turkey Paper Plate Craft

Materials: paper plate, markers (browns, reds, oranges), template pieces I've provided (printer, paper and something to color with) or make your own by tracing the shapes onto construction paper, scissors, glue, stapler (optional, but it holds the body onto the plate quickly)

On a paper plate, draw lines with brown, red and orange shades of markers, the lines should all cross in the center of the plate.

Then, Print out the template and cut out the body, beak, and feet.

Then,Trace the pieces on cardboard or construction paper.

Then, color the appropriate parts the proper color.

Finally, Assemble the body: the body is the largest piece -- it looks a bit like a peanut... the head is the narrow part glue the eyes, gobbler and beak onto the head (you could substitute wiggly eyes for the template ones or just use a black marker to draw on eyes) glue the feet onto the bottom of the body. Glue or staple the body to the plate and you're done your turkey.
