Handful of Thanks

Today we made a "Handful of Thanks" turkey! We are a little behind on crafting for Thanksgiving, this was our first one!

Madison had a fun time making this and thinking of things she was thankful for...of course she had the same three answers: Jesus, God and Heavenly Father. So, we went with it!

Tracing her hand

Cutting it out

Glueing on the eyes

Eyes and a beak

Mid- turkey -making snack

Completed Turkey



My original plan was to do an Advent type turkey and countdown to Thanksgiving. After we cut out all of the feathers, I realized it was WAY too many for that little turkey to handle! So, we picked a few out and just used those!!! Gobble Gobble!
