Thanksgiving Craft

Anyone have any ideas of a Thanksgiving craft I can do with the grandkids? Youngest is 6. In past we've made pinecone turkeys and rice krispie treat turkeys (not a great idea). So wondering if anybody has another one we could do.

Thanks,
Nancy

Have you made paper plate turkeys? I used to work in Kindergarten and we always made these...

Thanks for the site. I'd been looking, but hadn't found any I really liked. There are some here that are definately an idea.

I used to make something similar to this Turkey desert with my kids when they were young.

Also, you can buy small pumpkins & gourds and let the kids decorate them with paint, glitter, crayons, markers, cut outs, etc, and then use them in the Thanksgiving center piece.

Have fun!

Another one that I always thought was cute was the pinecone mouse. I would use those too in the centerpiece.....Here's MS's version. BTW, you can use a magic marker instead of paint.
