Handprint Crafts

Who doesn't love handprints crafts? Mama's love the keepsake of them. Kids will love making them too.

We have shared all kinds of handprint crafts in the past! Like Spider Handprint Craft, Fall Tree Craft, and Apple Hand Print. We also love a good footprint craft like our Halloween Footprints,

We highlighted this Thanksgiving craft along with some other fun kids' crafts in our November Crafts for Kids along with our 101+ Easy Craft Ideas for kids.

Turkey Crafts

There is something so fun about turkey crafts. I cannot decide if its the cuteness of the animals or the critical role they play in Thanksgiving that makes me love them so much. In actuality, it is the flare of their colorful feather tails that make me love them so much.

They could be whatever color the kid (or adult) could imagine. Creativity is a fun muscle that I wish for every child to flex. What color do you want them to be is my typical response to the kids I'm teaching art to.

Turkey Handprint

There is something so nostalgic about a turkey handprint. Thanksgiving is a holiday all about family and traditions from recipes to decorations. The idea of hanging my children's sweet turkey hand art up each year as I make my great-grandmother's stuffing recipe gives my heart so much joy.

We hope you treasure this turkey handprint craft as much as we do and store it for years to come!

Next, have them place the hand onto the paper spreading their fingers out as much as possible.
