Here is a fun 3D paper TURKEY for kids to make.
This Craft could be used with a Thanksgiving theme (social studies) or Animal theme (science - birds or vertebrates). It could also be used in Math with a Geometry theme of 2 and 3 Dimensional Objects. The kids could also draw or color a 2D turkey and compare the 2D and 3D figures.
Materials
- toilet paper roll (I love crafts that recycle!)
- white paper and crayons/paint or colored paper (for the fan)
- scissors
- glue
- crayons
- printer to download and print the turkey template and instructions from DLTK
- paper for printer

My only real change from DLTK 's directions was using colored construction paper for the fan instead of white paper.
These 3D turkeys would look great and be very useful as real napkin holders on the Thanksgiving table!
Have fun crafting!
