RACING TURKEYS



SUPPLIES
  • 2 Clothespins
  • Assorted colors of Feathers
  • 4 Google Eyes
  • Brown Construction Paper
  • Orange Construction Paper
  • Red Piping
  • Scissors
  • Glue Gun & Sticks
  • Paste

DIRECTIONS

1. Cut out the beaks from the orange construction paper. You can make a diamond shape and fold it in half to give it more of a 3D feel, or just a triangle.

2. Glue gun the feathers onto the end of the clothespin you press down on to open.

3. Paste the beaks on top of the side of the clothespin that opens up.

4. Glue gun the google eyes just above the beak.

5. Cut the red piping for the waddle and bend into the shape you'd like. Then use the glue gun to attach to the beak in between the eyes.

6. Cut the body out of the brown construction paper. Round one end and use the scissors to create several cuts into the rounded end. I used the glue gun to glue the body on.

Go Turkeys Go!
