Transform your paper rolls into a colorful turkey kid craft for Thanksgiving. Using recycled paper rolls, makes this an inexpensive and easy project to recreate. 

 

This Thanksgiving turkey craft is full of fun crafting materials: toilet paper roll, paper plate, and tissue paper

There are so many ways to upcycle your toilet paper and paper towel rolls. We turned toilet paper rolls into bird feeders and paper towel rolls into hyacinth flowers.

Toilet paper roll turkey kid craft perfect for Thanksgiving!

Directions for Turkey Kid Craft

1. Cut the paper plate in 1/2.

2. Either cut or tear tissue paper into small pieces and using a glue stick, glue onto the plate.

3. Glue toilet paper roll to the center of the paper plate.  We used a glue gun for this step.  

4. Glue wiggly eyes to the toilet paper.

5. Fold orange paper in 1/2 and cut a small triangle to make the beak. Glue to the toilet paper roll.

6. Cut or tear a small piece of red tissue paper and glue next to the beak for the wattle/gobbler.

My daughter had fun making this craft with me.  She loves using her new Glue Gun.
