Start by painting the bottom of your little one’s foot. You could have them do it themselves too. Allow the paint to dry. Cut out around the footprint loosely. Then, glue the footprint in the middle of your background paper.
Apply glue to the backs of the leaves. We used a paint brush to apply the glue on the entire leaf. Glue the leaves onto the footprint around the top to mimic feathers.
Now, use markers to add legs, feet, and a face to the turkey.
You’re all done! You have the cutest little turkey in the flock. I hope you enjoy making your little turkey as much as we did. Have fun being creative.
