Thanksgiving and fall are a wonderful time of year to stay in and craft. My kids and I made a Thanksgiving Thankful Turkey printable for this Thanksgiving.

This Thanksgiving craft is an excellent way to sit down and be reminded of what we are thankful for.

I thought it was adorable to sit down with children and hear what they are thankful for. Some of the things my daughter said surprised me.

My kids might have moments where they squabble but she sure loves her little brother. This craft almost meant more to me than them, I think.

What Kind of Paper Works Best for Thankful Turkey Printables?

Use cardstock paper to print out the turkey and feathers for a sturdy craft you can hang on a window or stick to the fridge. You can also print it on regular paper and glue it to a paper plate when done for a sturdy backing.

Don’t forget to print out the turkey template!

Some of our favorite crafting needs:

Once the turkey body and feathers are printed, simply cut out each item. Have your child(ren) color the turkey first.

With each feather that is colored, have them talk about what they are thankful for. Have them think of things they can either draw or write about on each feather.

After everything is colored, glue the bottom portion of each feather to the back of the turkey.

Ensure to glue colored side down on the back of the turkey so that the feathers show in the front. You can fan out the feathers however you wish.
