These brightly colored turkeys make a festive and functional complement to any Thanksgiving dinner table.

Materials

• 5- by 7-inch Colorful Poster Board
• Craft Knife
• Double-sided Tape

• Glue Stick
• 2 Googly Eyes (available at craft stores)
• Red and Yellow Construction Paper

Instructions

1. Cut head and feet shapes in the top and bottom edges of a 5- by 7-inch rectangle of colorful poster board, leaving a 2- by 7-inch center band.

2. Use a craft knife to cut 2 wings near the center of the band.

3. Curl the cardboard by wrapping the ends of the band around something round, such as a rolling pin. Remove the band, overlap the ends, and secure them with double-sided tape.
