This Thanksgiving craft for kids is so simple to make!  All you need is the printable template, scissors, an empty toilet paper roll, and double-stick tape or glue.  I printed my template on brochure paper for sturdier feathers but regular printer paper works as well.  Click the link below to view, save, and print the “Create Your Own Turkey” PDF and click through for step by step instructions!
