Turkey Handprint
There is something so nostalgic about a turkey handprint. Thanksgiving is a November 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.
Thanksgiving handprint crafts are a wonderful way to celebrate the holiday with the whole family. These heartwarming projects involve the little hands of your family members, making it a special and memorable activity. Create a "turkey handprint card" with your child's hand transformed into a little turkey, complete with colorful feathers.
These crafts not only capture a moment in time but also symbolize the love and togetherness of the holiday season, as each handprint represents a family member, coming together to create something truly special.

How To Make a Turkey Handprint
Start by painting the palm of the child's hand and thumb with brown paint. This will be the turkey's body. Then paint the other fingers with different colors of paint to make the turkey feathers.
Next, have them place the painted handprint onto the piece of white paper or white card stock spreading their fingers out as much as possible.
Once the paint dries, you can cut a small triangle of orange and red paper. Glue on the thumb as well as two googly eyes as the turkey eyes.
Viola, you have a cute turkey handprint craft that is a great way
