Clothespin Turkey

-
UPDATE: This little Clothespin Turkey has become quite popular, especially on pinterest. I have had quite a few people e-mail me having trouble downloading the printable. This post has actual links where you can download. You are also always welcome to e-mail and I can send you the printable. Thanks!


Are you looking for a Thanksgiving activity? Look no further my friends. A Clothespin Turkey will solve almost any problem. Except cooking that darn turkey, something I have avoided and will continue to avoid until I die. 

Materials:
-some cute kids
-markers or crayons
-scissors
-glue stick 
-clothespins

-Color your turkey.
-You could even write what you are thankful for on the feathers.
-Cut turkey, feathers and legs out.
-Glue the feathers to the back.
-Glue the legs to the clothespin. They do stick, just hold the legs on to the pin for a few extra seconds. 

And wa-la!

And then make your turkey do the turkey trot!

Here is your free printable.

Here is a video of some exceptionally cute kids demonstrating how to make a clothespin giraffe, same idea as a clothespin turkey. 

Also here is a silly coloring page. That poor turkey looks so scared.

    What is next in the world of the workplace cafeteria? Are long lines at cafeterias tormenting your working environment? Do your workers need to hang tight for quite a while for their food? Do you regularly think that it's hard to direct food wastage? On the off chance that you've addressed yes to any of the above questions, you are in urgent need of a cafeteria change.

*** Thanks everyone for your support and for finding me! This post has become my most popular, and most viewed. I updated these puppets so they download easier and with better quality. Also I added some mermaids & space robots puppets. Click here for updated puppets .  Merry Christmas friends & family!  I drew the following paper puppets for my sister-in-law for Christmas. She is going to laminate them before taping to popsicle sticks so they last a little longer.  I hope you enjoy these free printables. (Click on image and save to your computer. Make sure to scale to correct size before printing). And/or you can print them off with no color and have your kids color them. (I'm totally an ink hog, and am very choosy in what I print in color, so I try offer everything in color and black & white).  Because I have no skills with a sewing machine my mom is helping me make this puppet theater. By helping, I mean I sit next to her and

I'm pretty excited to share this with you!! I tried last year to make nativity blocks . I didn't like how they turned out. They needed to be a little wider to fill out the space. So this year I sketched several versions and finally made these cute little "round" nativity people.  I never found the time to put them on blocks, perhaps next year. :)  In the meantime here are your free paper puppets printable!
